NATIONALIZE THE OIL COMPANIES! |
The oil companies have crossed the line from reasonable
profits to obscene profits and price fixing and gouging!
The price of a barrel of oil has been aout the same for
the past year, yet gas prices have shot up 33% since January
and are expected to reach $4 a gallon this summer, while oil
remains at around $60-$70 a barrel!
Venezuela just nationalized their oil companies and it's
time for us to do the same here in the United States!
It's time to stop these gluttonous pigs from destroying this
country!

You are an idiot:

How do oil profits compare with those of other industries?
The oil and gas industry is one of the world’s largest industries, and
as a consequence its profits are often greater than many other
industries. However, merely comparing the size of profits among various
industries doesn’t indicate how profitable a particular industry may be.
A more useful tool for comparison is profit margin (calculated by
dividing net income by total sales). When this measure is applied, the
profitability of the oil and gas industry frequently falls below that of
other major industries.
As indicated in the graphic, the profit margin of U.S. oil and gas
companies was slightly above that of all industry in the third quarter
of 2006. However, the industry's profitability remained below the profit
margins of other industries such as pharmaceuticals, electrical
equipment and computers.
Nationalize DELL!!!!!
