    Let's get organized and have a mayor Strike and blockade that will send a message to Washington? Want to join or you're too tired from work?

    What do you want Washington to do. Start a war with the oil countries so. You can get cheaper fuel?

    Washington has nothing to do with fuel prices. A lot of it has to do with speculation on Wall Street and OPEC deciding the prices.
