And the US Government subsidizes them...Not only don't they pay any taxes but the US Government gives them money..Their current Net Profit for last couple of years has been over one hundred million dollars a day A friggin' DAY..Net Profit....Only one of the oil companies. Add all the rest up and the Daily amount of Net Profit is absolutely staggering...

1. But they won't build a $3 bil refinery because it's "too expensive" without tax $$

to pay for it.

[Double T]

2. exxon mobil is still on government subsidized corporate welfare........

and then has the gaul to screw the consumers that pay for it; the epitome of filthy, greedy bastards.

3. 10% of the cost of the war.

Anyone STILL think Socialism is still a bad idea?

Why?

[Double T]

4. Free market capitalism and democracy don't work...............

[Toots]

5. You think that would be worse than what we have now?

At least every single citizen get's Health Care. If a Nation will not take care of the Health and Welfare of it's citizens what good is it?

[Double T]

including nationalizing health care and the energy industries, to start.

[Tyler Durden]

[Double T]

9. Thank You Bu$hco!

12. Sounds like a good company to invest in

They are also buying back stock and giving out a nice dividend. It's nice if you are a shareholder. The dividend that I make on my Exxon and Conoco Phillips stocks more than makes up for the increases in gas prices.

13. Do you own tobacco stocks as well?

To each their own....

[Double T]

15. You might want to look at chinese poisoned and contaminated food futures...........

I understand they are also doing very well.
