The oil companies have the power to do this...

I have always been inclined to follow the money...

So you claim the oil companies have the power to generate more money by arbitrarily raising prices. And they haven't done this before to make more money.

And they will do it now, because oil prices are so high globally (making those oil companies, what poor) and that they want to end the high prices.

A company like ExxonMobil makes about 75% of its revenue outside of the US.

Missed my point once again, pal....

The point of the exercise is to remove a sitting president as the primary goal. By removing the obstacle to increased production, they would then have the production means to bring more to the market.

Get it?
