Question> Is there a way to pressure BP's Commercial Consumers?
Not the BP stations, but the Businesses they provide gas and oil to.

1. I had to stop myself
from rolling down my window and yelling at people getting gas at the BP station I was driving by today.

:grr:

2. The BP station that I see on my way home from work
has the lowest 'cash' price of gasoline anywhere in the area. It might be well nigh impossible to stop folks who are trying to make it on an unemployment check from buying gas there.

3. Exactly, that's why we need to pressure the Businesses who buy in bulk
It would be just as easy for the city of X to buy from another gasoline provider. Or for Doodlefingers candy to purchase gas and oil for their machines from somebody else.

4. Good question
but I have no idea how to find that information out. Good luck with that.
