Dear Alex Szeliga,

How is saying " other industries make wayyy more profit" an argument to evaluate how harmfull an industry is ?

Pharma is worse, banks are worse. You ll always find more greedy.

Poor poor oil companies, poor oil sellers. its wrong to talk back to companies to spend billions brain washing us ?

How is investing in alternative sources of energy an excuse to forget all the profit made at the expense of our health ?

Its great their doing it, they just a bit late, and have the marketing propagandha to make us believe they are now becoming conscious and clean.

Invest in boats that won't sink first. Stop supporting dictatorships worldwide to support your 8% margin.

Hitting on the wrong target ? Poor poor victim..
Who gets traffic, visibility ? the gas station do. Do you recommend we write a letter to the headquarters of Exxon and Shell to share our point of view ?

Put the sign there maybe ?
Conscience is just using the tools it has to respond to giant groups, that have all the tools to influence us.

You are the judge here to decide what is fair for those groups ? they need your protection, your support ?

Your money is enough man.
Thumbs up for bashing creativity, civil responsability, fun and the begining of a dialogue between the capital and its milk cows.

My apologies for the poor level on english, not my native language.

TAKE IT NATIONWIDE! There should be a site where we can download these in high res so we can print and post them all over the country!

If you honestly think that these signs will hurt anyone's business and convince someone to walk, bike, or ride a bus instead of driving then you have never met an American. If anything hurts their profits(the franchise owner) it is the price of gas not the fact that the oil industry has been irresponsible, or that it is being pointed out now.

Umm. How daft would a person need to be to misinterpret the target of these messages? The targets weren't the franchisees, but rather the oil companies.

If supply and demand and traditional dynamics of capitalism applied to the oil industry, then profits would be thin. The companies would be feeling the same pain as the consumers. Their prices would increase to reflect that their cost of operation are increasing. This is one of the base tenants of supply and demand, period. Their profits are absurdly huge. This suggests that traditional market dynamics no longer are in play.

Oil futures speculation and false inflation of price per barrel of crude through market manipulation by the oil industry by way of PAC fund and lobbyist influence over lawmakers is simply the case for the price at the pump.

When regulations go away, the industry can make its own rules and name its own price. This message brought to you by Dick Cheney and his super-secret energy commission.

Fuck yeah. 3 cheers, beers and holding a mirror to the man.

This is BS - the US Government makes more on the sale of gas than any one of these stations. So flip off washington for taxing us to death - not an oil company, or the station.
