There's millions of people in the United States that are having a hard time with the high gas prices. Is there anything we can do? I mean besides banning the gas stations for a day, because it's obvious that doesn't work.

Lower consumption,buy a gas efficient vehicle instead of a big gas guzzling SUV,lower your thermostat,car pool,ride a bike,take public transportation...the list goes on and on.
If everyone did just a little to lower their consumption,it would make a big impact.Unfortunately,most of us aren't willing to do that.

We bought smaller vehicles with good gas mileage and installed a wood add on furnace. We paid $200 for gas this last winter ( in Wisconsin)

Drive less, thus lessening the demand for gasoline and oil.
Maybe you should go protest outside the Canadian, Mexican and Venezuelan Embassies.
Since they sell the oil the oil companies use to make gasoline.
You could ask them why they increased the price of oil so high.
It's amazing that people want to blame US oil companies for foreign nations doubling the price of oil.

if all Americans stopped buying gas for a time, and i don't mean just one day,.....then the rules of supply and demand would take a effect,.....no demand the price comes down,.....but what do you think the odds are that we as Americans would stop buying gas?,.....

Stop having babies, the more people there are in the world, the more drivers there are, the more gas is used, the more demand goes up, the more price goes up.

I sold my car and use mass transit only.
Do something instead of just complaining.
