Good post. Oil companies don’t get money from the government, they pay the government taxes and royalties.

Raise their taxes if you want to but ask yourself how is that going to lower the cost of gasoline at the pump?

And, considering the fact that oil companies can and do drill all over the world, how does raising their taxes encourage them to drill here and put your brother in law back to work?

Again, good post.

There is no federal revenue problem.

There is a federal spending problem.

How would causing the spenders to have more money to spend solve the spending problem?

No one can actually believe this way, it must be purposeful and deliberate destruction.
