The demand for gasoline is constant. We aren't running out of oil. We aren't being forced to ration.
If supply and demand are stable, prices will be stable.
The demand is stable. But oil companies can (and have) cut back on production to artificially induce a shortage - aka... the supply goes down, so they raise the price (as if they were running out).
It's pretty much impossible to boycott the oil companies. This would require that you drive 0 miles per week, and buy nothing that has been transported by land, sea, or air.
