http://money.cnn.com/2007/02/01/news/compa...dex.htm?cnn=yesExxon Mobil Corp. Thursday reported the biggest annual profit on record for a U.S. corporation - earning more than $75,000 every minute of 2006 on the back of record oil prices. How and the f*ck do they get away with this? Unbelieveable.
In an related story, Tony's dad lost 40 Billion dollars on BBW. Anyways what do you expect. If this was another industry, like the auto industry, no one would care. Its supply and demand with the expected greed. People drive more, more people on earth, need more cars, cars need gas, gas costs money, oil company makes money. Its easy. Then all the large companies can just gauge the hell out of it, since they have a monopoly on the industry.
