Another big lie from Comrade Hillary: “We want to roll back the “tax breaks” on the oil companies.” Translation: “We’re raising taxes on the oil companies, and your gas prices are going up, totally due to govt greed, although we will blame it on the oil companies when they continue to make money.”

If you don’t know by now, don’t mess with it.

The economic facts are that the oil companies haven’t increased their profit margin, so their total profits have increased because they are selling more product.
If you want lower gas prices, allow easier entry into the market by rolling back restrictive enviro regulations.  This will increase supply, which will lower prices.

If you don’t know by now, don’t mess with it.

We should get tax cuts from all of this oil revenue rolling in, both at the federal level as well as in my state of North Dakota.

But the greedy government types want to keep it to expand their power.

Who’s greedier, Exxon making a paltry 40 billion or the Federal Government making 50 times that.

At least I get something from Exxon.

What’s going to happen to US industry when the global warming extremists like John McCain double the price of electricity?  I would think all these factories will close and set up in countries where they aren’t scared of technology.

At least I get something from Exxon.

Exactly.  Without profits, there would be no oil and gasoline.

If you don’t know by now, don’t mess with it.

I LOVED Edwin’s line about"unjustified" profits. Every single person in elected office is making “unjustified” profits. Especially members of Congress.

Una Salus Victus Nullam Sperare Salutem

I love the logic: “if we make sure that the compaines don’t make a profit, the price will go down.” Did Hillary go to the Robert Mugabe School of Economics?
