Apr 24, 2008 - What would happen if oil companies didn't get the tax breaks? Let me see... oh yeah, gas would go even higher.

Oil companies are making about 10% Margin , average for any business. People who dont know anything about business like to say they're making too much. BS.

Jun 25, 2008 - I think we should let the wealthy pay less taxes than the working class. Percentage wise I'm talking. They deserve it as they are better than us. Obviously God is rewarding the righteous with wealth... Wait a minute... I seem to remember Jesus saying something about those who want thier reward now in this life and those who will recieve thier reward in the after life. I believe the greedy self righteous "Old Testament Christians" are being a little too selective in thier spiritual reading.

Jun 25, 2008 - Really, why am i seeing so many negatives in my 401K statement then? Maybe your just a republican cheerleader.Maybe your the "moron" who's buying whatever your chosen team is selling?

wind0wninja Says:

Jul 10, 2008 - Besides that the reason gas is higher is because the Congress approved the spending. The bill is then sent to the Federal Reserve where they print the money out of nothing diluting the money supply. The increased money supply make the dollar worth less. Since all oil is traded in US dollars the more dollars is circulation the more gas prices rise. So the problem really isn't high fuel costs it's that the dollar's worth less that it was before the spending, iraq war, stimulus package, bush, etc..

papbowski Says:

Jul 16, 2008 - If there are no tax breaks to big oil and gas companies how do you expect to fund research in alternative fuels? Do you seriously think it'll be anyone else that invests money into developing the technology? Oh yeah, energy is made from love and holding hands. When "big oil" bails the US out of it's energy crisis maybe it will open some people's eyes, but it's doubtful.

Jul 22, 2008 - Apollo project where the government funds it from taxes? NO WAY!

hannityforpres Says:

Jul 24, 2008 - Maybe you dont own oil stocks, or the stocks you do own are dragging the whole thing down.

Aug 4, 2008 - Schaffer '08!

Licmycat Says:

Aug 7, 2008 - Who is it getting abortions forced on them?

aterimperator Says:

Aug 8, 2008 - That's incorrect, 10% margin is below average. I know several entrepreneurs and several business school professors who say that taking anything less than a 20% margin is stupid. That having been said, what bothers me about big oil is not that they are criminally robbing us (they aren't), it's that with the money they have it's simply too much power for any small group of people.

Lexicon1971 Says:

Aug 14, 2008 - Gas cost more because we (America) don't matter anymore. China/India they are the new powers.

tkpadilla Says:

Aug 23, 2008 - What's wrong with oil execs making good money? Do you know how many jobs these people you demonize create? Exxon Mobile's profit in the first half of the year was 22 billion. But they also payed 55 billion in taxes! "Tax breaks" are not really tax breaks. When people say that oil companies shouldn't get tax breaks, they're really saying they should have to pay 60 billion instead of 55 billion. Anytime your tax rate is 2 1/2 times your profit rate I'd say you're getting ripped off.

Sep 17, 2008 - Somebody needs to investigate "Big Razor Blade!" My goodness, have you seen how much those Fusion blades cost! And I bet the CEO of Gillette is laughing all the way to the bank. We need him and the CEO of Schick to come before Congress immediately!
