So what were the companies in history that had higher profits? Let's close them down fast.

On sales of almost 90 Billion. Big deal.
This reminds me so much of when they reported Bill Gates's wealth level for the first time in the '90s -and shortly went after him in court.

$.09 per gallon profit - $.50+ tax per gallon profit for U.S. Congress to spend.
Which is worse, getting around on a gallon of gas or listening to preening officials tell us we are undertaxed?

I'm sorry, but they are making far too much money on the backs of the suffering Amerikan worker.
This is the new Amerika: Close them down and redistribute the wealth!!!!
Wait, they do that anyway through STOCK OWNERSHIP??
Oh.
Never mind...

It just baffles me as to how stupid people actually are...
Mobil/Exxon has probably posted a 7% profit for years, if not decades. If their costs were not up as significantly as their operating profits then EVERYBODY would have a legit beef, but to quote an old Wendy's commercial "Where's the beef?"
As they say about kidney stones - "this too shall pass - all-be-it painfully, but it will pass"

Sell more gas....make more profit.
Cuba gets it!
China gets it!
Venezuela gets it!
Why don't Congress get it?
If Cuba can drill off the Florida coast, why cant America?
HUH?!

Sales of $88.8B, Earnings of $8.4B... Return on Sales of 9.4%... not bad... but certainly not great, either.
Intel: 22.2%
Microsoft: 36.6%

WOW!! great news.
Imagine if Exxon & Co. were allowed to explore for oil and build refineries. A new economy would open up, more people to get work and pay more taxes to the government and the subsidies to big oil could go away.
