Don't be political hacks with no accountability to your comments. Make the case based on facts.
Record profits? Who cares. Remember the $0.09 per gallon in profits? Remember the $0.50 per gallon in taxes? Why aren't you attacking the government for how much they are taking. The oil companies are pocketing less than 20% of what the government takes and they are distibuting those profits to people like you and me. These are public companies. All you have to do is buy stock and you get your share of those record profits.
Was this what you were after Brent?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]........Don't worry I got your back[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Even my "sadistic" wants can take a back seat in this one...

Your first and second paragraghs contradict each other........."Why aren't you attacking the government for how much they are taking." Well, I was. I know there is no single person or reason that the cost of fuel has double in recent years, however, do you honestly and I mean honestly, believe that your president's hands are tied on the rising fuel cost issue?
As for your last comment..... "All you have to do is buy stock and you get your share of those record profits." So, just how much does one share of Exxon cost right now? The average American doesn't have the cash flow to go out and buy share in any company, hence the reason so many are upset because they can't afford the gas.

First off, Democrat or Republican makes no difference to me. Politicians run for office for one reason, money. Do you realize the retirement packages these people get? I'm not talking about just the president, check and see what your county judge or prosecutor get for retirement, it's public info, you'll be shocked. That being said, I'm not on here to bash one side or the other, I just think ole George and his cabinet are crooks.

Besides, a fair percentage of the taxes aren't federal.
If people can't afford the gas, why does demand keep rising even at $3.00 per gallon?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Hey no doubt the demand is rising, how could it not? That doesn't mean everyone that is buying fuel can really afford it.
