Ditto that. The numbers vary depending on where you look, but the average oil company makes a profit of around 6% on every gallon of gas sold. I'll bet the average dollar store does better.

Yet the oil companies are greedy and evil for delivering a high quality product, and with a low profit margin. Oh...my.

Complete idiocy, they sound like full-on leftists with no clue how markets work.

I’m hoping for a larger dip in Exxon’s price so I can add to my holdings.

It is incredible. Oil companies bring energy to the surface from some of the harshest environments on earth, transport it across oceans in huge tankers, refine to numerous blends of gasoline in massive and highly engineered plants, place it in a truck and deliver to every neighborhood in America.

They do all this heavy lifting with government and environmentalists sitting on their shoulders calling them every name in the book. Meanwhile, ungrateful economic illiterates here join the chorus while willingly paying more for bottled water than a gallon of gasoline. Pathetic.
