I am looking at the numbers, The numbers of dollars needed for reconstruction, The number of National Guardmen sent to quell the Chaos, The Number of Dead, and missing. The Number of Soldiers in
IraqThe Number of dollars spent there.And I can't help but think Why is it so easy for us to expend resources on destructionand so difficult to expend them on (re)construction?New Orleans in

It doesn't work. It's bullshit. C'mon, do you really really think a 60 year old company like BP would go belly up b/c sales dropped for 1 day!????? If you use 10gallons/week, it doesn't matter when
you buy it, you will still be using 10 gallons/week. The only thing a boycott will do is make business slow on the 3rd and busy on the 4th. Besides, sharp changes in the market don't happen, b/c
they are buffered by the transportation/shipping industry. Fed Ex isn't going to stop sending it's trucks out to join the boycott, neither are the trucking companies, nor are airline and air
freight industries [1]Everything you buy uses fuel, b/c it was shipped to the store you're buying it in. Cotton is grown in Texas, shipped to China to make t-shirts, shipped back to the U.S. and
bought in a store. The only way to decrease your personal gas cost is by USING LESS GASOLINE, not by choosing which day you buy it on.There, that felt good.jv[1] Jet fuel comes from the C12-C13
fraction of Crude Oil.PS: Check out what the Rest of the World is Paying for Gas. Americans pay an equivalent of 65eurocents/L or 44pence/L now.
