I'm a true friend of capitalism.

Oh yes, capitolist. Picking at the bones of the consumer to get every scrap of profit.

33 billion dollars profit per quarter. Thats what the oil companies make on average. All profit. Imagine if the food manufacturers wanted the same profit margine. What if a loaf of bread cost $20?

People need gasoline. People need natural gas. Its a necessity. Our economy is about to get real ****** up if gas prices continue to skyrocket. Eggs will cost more, milk will cost more, just about everything will cost more. Just wait about 6 months and the cost will be handed down to every consumer. And all the while the crooks at the oil companies WILL mantain their 33 billion dollar per quarter profit.

And you wanna feed me this bullshit about gas prices not keeping up with inflation rates. If it did, it would cause the inflation rate to rise expedentialy until it hit the roof. Gas prices cant keep up with inflation without bringing the economy down hard.

What seems suspicious is the lack of competative pricing in the oil industry. Their is no competative pricing! Why not?

The difference between oil companies and others is that oil is a necesity. Poeple HAVE to be able to heat their homes without having to choose between food and heat or medications and heat. I was talking to a gas station owner today and he said he expects prices to drop back down within a week. The recent rise was more panic than anything else

I am glad to see someone thinking clearly. However I disagree with your choice of the word "panic". I would scratch that and replace it with the word 'excuse". Because thats what I saw, an excuse to raise the price. *** forbid that the oil barons would only make $25 billion in profits this quarter. Think of those filthy rich bastards only being able to buy 3 luxury jetliners this year instead of 6. All these foreign countries are pitching in millions of barrells of crude to help the US. But you know the oil barons got paid $$$, **** yes they did. Did opec do ANYTHING to help out? **** no. Are you kidding, sacrifice their profit margin to help out in a time of crisis.

And this assclown (HUGO) is defending oil barons like their just your typical free enterprise success story.
