Oil companys make their money off pulling the oil out of the ground and selling it per barrel, before the refining even takes place. Your arguement is invalid.
cheap gasoline is not a right. if you don't want to pay it, dont use it. make your own gasoline. maybe you can do better. gasoline = NOT A RIGHT |

I know, you want us to hate big oil like the rest of the hippies, but they're in business to make money, and gas prices are low, so what's your point? You might want to look into the biggest CEO bonus that recently took place. You won't hear about it though, because the Goldman Sachs company is one of the biggest funders of democrats, so while democrats try to persecute the rich oil tycoons, you won't hear ---- from the hippies or the hippie media about it. I'm not a victim of anybody. I'm buying gas at the sub $2.00 range, whiney bitches. |

do you bitch and moan when ferrari sells the enzo for a million bucks? are they making too much money on it? what is the point of this thread |
Re: Exxon mobile and other oil companies profits
really we can;t do anything abput it its called supply and demand, and when the hippies say I have to buy it anyway no we don't have to buy so much. you neighboor who drives an excursion to take 3 kids to shcool creates the demand that maks gas expensive. shouls ---- be different;yes, In a perfect world would the gas companies pay money to research alternate fuels that would save the earth and put them out of buisiness yes. but if you sytarted a shop would you pay money to your competitors to do better no you wouldn't so yeah life sucks. untill you take money out of your pocket to make the world a better place, don't bitch about those who don't. oh and nuke china they open a coal fuel power plant a day. PS 2 bucks a gallon for gas is great and 3 dollars isn't so bad either.

It was the only way not to spark of another war with russia. |
