What about us poor suckers that have to drive to work everyday?  I have no idea what to do about it, however; I think the nation should go on strike and not drive our cars, except for emergencies, all Labor Day weekend, and let those gas companies suck that up their butt.

Labor Day weekend is a bad time to try to do something like that.. because everyone is going somewhere that weekend.
And in the week everyone has to work...might be able to swing something like that on a weekend..
but I doubt it..
Our cars and trucks are just too much a part of our way of life I am afraid.
And the "big guns " know it..
