A simple lesson in business...

We have been told not to blame the oil companies for the price of gas. However, that is a load of bull-honky. It's simple...if the price of oil is really increasing so much due to external factors, like increasing world demand and decreasing supply, ask yourself why all of these oil companies are posting such high profit margins. If they are really simply passing the cost onto the consumer, why are they making so much more money now? Also, ask yourself why oil companies have all these tax exemptions while posting these high profits.
