Help Make A Grassroots Movement Grow...

Starting a grassroots movement for change is as easy as 1, 2, 3, 4...


1. Get your friends and neighbors together around the kitchen table.


2. Discuss the problem.


3. Make up some signs saying:

"We are fed up!"

"Stop the robbery at the pumps!"

"No more wars for oil!"

"Tax oil company profits to pay for health care, education, housing!"

"Boycott Mobil/Exxon/Esso!"



4. Head out with your signs for your neighborhood Mobil/Exxon/Esso gas station/convenience store.


The time has come to serve notice on the oil companies that we are fed up with the robbery at the pumps and we aren't going to take it any more.

Education.

Organization.

Unity.

Action.

One little raindrop doesn't amount to much... but, let it pour and all those little raindrops sure add up... talk to your family, friends, fellow workers and neighbors.


Whenever possible purchase Citgo gas and oil products.


The time has come to consider public ownership and nationalization of the oil industry.


Let's talk about the politics and economics of livelihood.
