Give A Day To America!

The way things are going now, and with gas pumps reading like slot machines in a nightmare,  Americans are looking for ways to cut back! 

Some businesses are going to a four day work week, working four ten-hour shifts instead of five eight-hour shifts to save on gas! 

These are hard times, my fellow Americans, and hard times call for hard answers!  If everyone worked four day weeks, Americans would save big bucks on gas and get an extra day off too! 

I challenge every good American to ask for a four day week immediately and for businesses to shut down for one extra day per week! 

I challenge every good American to support this effort by not complaining about the minor inconvenience of losing one day of shopping!

Benjamin Franklin said, "A penny saved is a penny earned." 

It's time to save our pennies, America! 

I challenge each of you to keep America strong!

I challenge you to give a day to lower gas prices! 

I challenge you to

Give A Day To America!

"A penny saved is a penny earned."

ANOTHER day OFF is just another penny NOT earned..unless,,of course,,the 4 DAYS are LONGER..

If all you can save are pennies, you need a new financial advisor.

Of course Hawk! You make the same pay but save a trip to work and back, maybe a trip to lunch too. You'll save some pennies and reduce oil demand at the same time!

Great points but I can tell you are younger than 30. THis isnt bad.. yet

Most of us lived through a Democrat Liberal President Carter who had no clue how to do anything. 11 per cent Employeement, 27 per cent home interest rates. and Gas lines.

But to make up for the extra money spent... make more money. With the internet..it is actually a whole new world in money making. I turned $4000 into a $120 million dollar business when we had a drought in 1991.

DONT work harder... work SMARTER.

well well well, now that the gas is so high and its bothering a lot of people. its time to realize that your president kind of abandon you. What does that mean. Gas is not high by accident. Its high because you vote republican. Republicans are there for the 1% rich people. not the average working class. However because of racism and bitter hatred to say your a democrat we stay in a party that does not look out for our interest. Good luck in hating all the other races and finding fault and hoping to readjust yourselves to the new gas prices. Next year the gas will be 7-10 per gallon and we will continue having a republican in office.

Hey Gammies! I didn't see you there before! We posted at the same time!

So, Brit, they have higher gas prices yet work less hours per week than we do? Is that conservative living or do they make the big bucks?
