Petrol Prices Where You Are

[therainmaker]

One of these days you'll work out who really is to blame for high petrol prices, Dan, and you won't have to be upset that I'm teaching you right now.



I dofeel sorry for you, kid. You type online like an AFL player fights. Are you wearing a handbag right now?

now its just going below the belt

what has all this got to do with petrol prices?

[Leighton]

Settle down, Rainy. It's not like Dan's a sheep or anything. What's your post got to do with it?

Oh yeah, $1.33.9

Sorry for the formatting, but here's the top 5 Fortune 500 companies from last year, notice anything funny?


Rank Company Revenues ($ millions) Profits ($ millions)
1 Exxon Mobil 339,938.0 36,130.0
2 Wal-Mart Stores 315,654.0 11,231.0
3 General Motors 192,604.0 10,600.0
4 Chevron 189,481.0 14,099.0
5 Ford Motor 177,210.0 2,024.0

That's right, the one at the top made as much profit as the next 4 combined.

There isn't a shortage of Oil, they're just making a motza of us and until dweebs wakeup and actually acknowledge that the problems aren't just stuck in the middle East but are right with the people allowing companies to rip off consumers then there will be no change. Shit, Exxon's tax consessions alone probably made more than GM last year.

So fucking what if oil companies make huge profits - good on them for being able to do it

[Leighton]

Yeah! You tell me, Dan!!! Whacko!

The US government is "by the people, of the people and for the people". Not for deadshit corporations to milk everything from the people while they stand idly by and grease their wheels by driving up the price of their product through ratshit leadership.

You'll realise that one of these days...

[Danallica]

yeh contradicted yourself there, its pointless tryin to talk properly with you coz you just dont get it

[Leighton]

Contradicted myself? You're the dick that started a thread whining about petrol prices then patted the back of the groups that make that price up.
