in typical liberal fashion, prices go up when they were supposed to bring the oil companies to their knees.
my question: what happened?

people bought there gas on the 14th or the 16th, or every other day of the year, its funny that people thought that this was going to work.

Good heavens, not buying fuel just one day won't make a difference at all. A tank of gasoline lasts me three months, sometimes four, (I don't go anywhere unless I absolutely have to :)), so if people could do without it that long or longer, it might make a difference, but almost everyone in the country would have to participate. I'd like to see that just to find out what would happen. Nobody will go for it, though.

What happened was everyone filled their tanks and gas cans
on the 14th. Hats off to everyone, your actions have resulted in the opposite. Again congratulations!

It could never have worked. Even if we didn't buy gas for a week, they could triple their prices and we would have to buy it.
