Bush Energy Policy - Wars for NO Oil - Increases Profits |
|
Edited on Mon Aug-07-06 12:35 PM by Miss Chybil
How can oil companies increase their profits without having to put out much in the way of research, or adding new refineries with their inherent costs for labor, construction, etc.? The oil companies are raking in record profits, not for what they have done to provide us with MORE oil, but by what they, and their political lapdogs, have done to provide us with LESS!

I like that, "oiligopoly." Too bad so many people have to die for their money.
