I don't understand the 'national day of no-gas-buying' idea. It makes no difference if you don't buy gas for a day. Heck, half the population of the nation could avoid buying gas for a single day, and there wouldn't be a huge consequence. As long as you still USE gas at the same rate, you'll still buy it at the same rate. So, don't buy gas on a certain date... That just means that you either (a) fill up the day or two before the boycott, or (B) fill up the day or two after the boycott. Over the course of a week or month, the total gas consumption is still the same. The only way it would have any meaningful impact would be if you don't USE any gasoline on a particular day. If you don't use it, you won't buy it. Unfortunately, for most people, it isn't feasible to just not use gas on a particular day. Having to get to and from work, pick up the kids from school, etc, etc etc. Our nation and culture revolves around the ability to drive each day.
