I know that ultimately it'll make little difference. But litttle messages are better than none at all.
There is no message.
Even if no one bought gas on 04/15, the total receipts for the week would be the same with everyone buying gas the day before or the day after. The gasoline supply-chain is a lot more than 24 hours long, you know.
Adjusting the day of the week on which you buy gas isn't protesting the price of gas. It's completely nonsensical.
The only message being sent is "I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING BUT IT GIVES ME A WARM FUZZY ... SO THERE!".
"let's try to put a dent in the Middle Eastern oil industry"...
Are you aware of how little oil we really get from the "Middle East" these days? The greatest part of their oil goes to India, China, and Japan, IIRC.
I'm sure you can find it with a google search.
I would do it for you, but I really don't care!
A Tesla is CHEAP? Or, INEXPENSIVE? Not to me!
Besides, I can just see having to replace the $5000 battery pack in a car that is now worth $1000! (No, those numbers aren't "REAL", they are just for the purpose of demonstration!)
