Exclusive: oil companies’ profits soared to $174bn this year as US gas prices rose
This is why gas is so expensive. The oil execs and oil families are bringing in a few billion extra dollars this year alone. EACH. The top 5 oil families/CEOs will probably net 10 billion dollars each on this latest heist from the American people.
And they say this is because of democrats? This is the biggest scam since big tobacco. These are individuals at the end of the day, not corporations, and these individuals are raking in billions of dollars from working families., hiding behind the smokescreen of Covid chaos.
And this is on top of the usual billions. This is obscene and frankly don’t understand how working people can afford this?

Seems pretty shameless given the hard times of regular folks.
When does the greed end? When will they have sucked every last penny from working Americans?

Oil has been this way since it was discovered and cars became a thing. Wars fought and people died over it. Big tobacco angelic compared to big pharma and DuPont.

You can thank the oil lobby in Washington, D.C. for preventing technology from going ahead with solar power for this.
