greed

maybe you need to live closer to public transportation or car pool or closer to your job. extreme profits are based on the research of companies twenty to thirty years ago.
the people making all this money are stock owners and the government. taxes have exceeded profits since the 80s (according to the tax foundation). the only lasting effect of the windfall profit tax was to increase the number of federal government employees needed to implement a program that serves no useful purpose.

greed

I guess greed rules the world and we will all suffer at the hands of this mighty big greed. People have to drive to work in most places, like where I live in the DFW area. There is no transportation to get me to work except my own vehicle and to pay the awful high price of gasoline for a necessity is truly a sin when the oil companys are making such extreme profits. They are profiting from our needs and not from just providing something people want. That is so closely aligned to utility companys overcharging for necessary fuel for heating and cooling, it is not funny nor ethical. It is purely sinful. We must pay for the sin of the greedy. Thanks a bunch. I hope the people making all this money suffer a rotting in hell existance to pay for their sin of hurting the people of the world like this. (forgive me Lord)
