And Exxon/Mobile just posted a 31% profit increase over last year. Gee, let's punish our tax system and reward the corporate thieves.

No one complained ten years ago when oil companies were fighting for survival and oil was $10-15/barrel. You don't believe in capitalism?

If you don't like it stop buying the product or buy oil stocks and enjoy the up cycle.

It's called supply and demand and we can't repeal it no matter what we think.

You should pose this question to "conservatives" on this board: it's very dangerous.

I rather doubt that. Its more like government interference in the marketplace .
