The socialist Hillary and Obama both say that Exxon Mobil make too much profit. They want to take a larger portion of their profit and give it to social programs for the poor.
Seems like they need a lesson on capitalism: the more profit a company keeps, the more they can invest, the more jobs they can create, the more they will stimulate the economy, and therefore the more taxes the federal government will receive for their ’social programs”.
They don’t make too much profit, they pay too little tax.
They’re making record profits, why didn’t they use those profits to build new refining capacity?
The gubment makes more off the taxes on gas than the oil companies make in profit.!
The U.S. government makes more money through taxes on oil than the oil companies do.
Yes no matter how you cut it, Big oil is ripping off the people, and the governments of both parties let them.
More money to invest in their own bonuses and golden handshakes you mean?
Definately, the major oil companies just reported the highest profits in their history. But I disagree with Hillery and Obama as both want too increase taxes by over 200 billion dollers which I believe is enough too bankrupt the country. They want too do this too insure free health care for everyone but do not say how we are going too pay for it. We already have laws that require a 2/3 majority too increase taxes so this may very well be illeagle. At the very least it will increase the taxes of every American by several thousand dollars per year. If you think forclosures are bad now just wait until this happens. Besides potentialy bankrupting of the country. What we really need too do is too force Mexico too pay back the several billion dollers that they have borrowed and never made a single penny back on. Canada has had a socialists health care plan for many years and Canadians must wait several months too see a doctor and then Canada deems treatments that are excepted world wide as expiermental and refuses too cover them. Canser and Heart problems are amoung those not covered and people are dying as a result.
