Mobil/Exxon post record profit

[Squid kids Dad]

That is so fu&&%^ disturbing and WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Raven]

as its not even close to being over....

price gouging during disasters is just plain wrong....and should be illegal....

and did you hear the bull crap the oil exec said....

he says: the reason our profits were so high is because of how large this industry is.... PFFFFFFTTTT ! wanna see how large my fist is....
you friggan thief.....whammo .... right to the jaw....

and another one flatly refused to be sworn in giving testimony saying that it was completely out of order...
and it's not a free market system when disasters strike because thats not business as usual circumstances...at all...

and now they're predicting that the heating oil and gas is still gonna go thru the roof this winter.....

(as i put up my storm windows and wash them to let the most sunshine in)

Yet on another note the AP reports that Mobil/Exxon is biulding two brand new refineries.
BUILT ENTIRELY OUT OF TWENTY DOLLAR BILLS !!!!!!!!

My understanding is that these refineries are being paid for by the Saudis and built ih Saudi.I could be completely wrong but I do remember hearing a news report back in the spring about how it would be profitable for the oil companies to refine oil there in Saudi instead of here in the States.
