Should we support the May 2nd Gas Strike?

It seems that a new Gas Strike Day has been planned for May 2nd, 2008.

While I understand the move, I think we are looking at the wrong fix. A one day strike is more of a hindrance to we the people than to Big-Oil.
Shouldn't we instead focus on finding alternate energy sources?
Shouldn't we act more responsibly and favor smaller cars over SUVs and other Tank-like vehicles?
Shouldn't we stop wasting our resources and change our life styles instead?

It all seems to me like pandering rather than a willful stance for change. I think I will certainly meet the strikers at the pump, the day before or the day after the strike.

What do you think?
