As you have probably read, the oil companies' profits are up in the stratosphere this quarter. While I'm not against anyone making money, these profits are sickening. ExxonMobil and the others are making a ton of cash, while the price of their product is having an overwhelmingly bad impact on our economy.
My friend Steve Sanderlin proposes a "sensible" boycott. Don't buy gas from ExxonMobil stations. Keep buying the other stuff (newspapers, coffee, Mars bars, etc) from the stations, so you don't clobber the small businessmen and women who run these stores, just stop buying your gas there.
I think it's worth a try. I have no better ideas.
