The simple solution to the price increase in gas

As the debate rages on about gas prices and how it effects us, one has to wonder why we continue to remain silent about it. Why don't we ban buying gas and shopping at the same time one day a week? Since gas is pushing food prices up, it only makes sense to consider pushing for a shopping ban as well. I had a few people tell me that gas prices aren't connected to Sunday shopping. You have to be kidding! Don't we use gas to fill our cars up to go to these stores an extra day? Don't companies use large trucks to transport their goods ? They all use gas and with the price increases, we are getting screwed big time. Not only will gas and our groceries continue to cost us more,but our power bills as well. With stores being forced to close on a Sunday, saving on gas and lights would be an asset, but we cannot do it with out your support. We need to pressure our governments to do something about it. Bring the ban back on Sunday shopping for our families, environment, and finally to save some of that money in our wallets.
Big business is controlling our government. It's hard to believe the power these people have over our government. As they continue to take from us , I have to wonder where will it stop? How much will we continue to allow them to take? Isn't it time that we do something about it?
If anyone decided to steal from a store they would be charged. These legalized crooks (oil companies) are stealing from us big time and we all need to be responsible citizens. To be responsible we can all take the right approach and do something about this instead of remaining silent. Think about it. How much more will they take from us , if we continue remaining silent? Something to think about.
