“We have to do something about the exorbitant gas prices, and the best way to start with that is to do something about the five big oil companies getting subsidies they don't need,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (R-Nev.) said on the Senate floor on Tuesday.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.)is wrong because companies ALWAYS pass increased taxes onto the consumers. What would you expect? The ten cents per gallon that they earn will remain at ten cents per gallon. You and I will pay more at the pump for any increase in costs of production. Harry Reid, an allegedly corrupt politician, does not want to understand basic economics 101, and general knowledge and experience for the past 100 years.

Correct. Another thing to consider is that Reid, Pelosi and Obama are outright liars.
