If you think the oil companies are making too much money, buy some of their stock on margin.

I just wish some of the folks who criticize oil companies realized what a boom and bust cycle it is. Nobody cares when oil prices are cheap and thousands of workers get laid off.

But everyone notices when prices get high and the companies quit going bankrupt.

I work for an oil company and it's certainly flying high during this price cycle. I'd be an idiot if I believed that these prices are a new bottom despite what I read.

I've seen this too many times.
