Why are people mad at Big Oil, for making 8.4% profit but; still worship WallMart who is making twice that ?



Millions do obeisance at the Golden Calf of Wallmart and never question the faith.

Is it just a matter of Wallmart having a more deceptive Public Relations

If Big Oil had TV ads with cute Bunnies rescuing oil from the dark side, deep in the Earth. Would we change our minds and Love Big Oil.

fantastic money

  1. Cause Wal Mart is making their profits in a manner that isn’t gouging the American public?

  2. I haven’t shopped at Wal-Mart in about 6 years and I don’t own a car. I stick my money where my values lie.

  3. they also say we care for you by investing in ‘alternative energy’ bullsh*t ads, who actually believe that ?

    Amazon is better.

  4. Because we don’t have to shop at Walmart if we don’t want to. We do have to buy gas if we want to go to work, amongst other things

    This is funny, at the time I am writing this I have 3 thumbs down. What, do you disagree that we don’t have to shop at Walmart and we have to buy gas? This place is getting pretty f’d up man…………

  5. Because Big Oil makes their per dollar profit increases based solely on the inflated cost of the product.

    Wal MArt makes increased profits based upon increasing sales.

  6. I don’t have to spen $100 every week at Wmart just to get to work.

  7. Huwah brother!

  8. Yeah. Shame on them for owning a business and making money.

  9. I don’t like Walmart either actually. I won’t shop there.

  10. Newsflash - people are mad at Wal-Mart too. Exploited employees, toxic products from China, and overseas child labor sticking phony-baloney “Made in USA” labels on clothes?

  11. Why aren’t people mad at the government for taking 14% and they don’t do anything to bring oil to the country.

  12. Because its 8.4% of an artificially high price.

  13. Actually Walmart pays the lowest wages in the retail industry. Some fast food chains pay better. Walmart also encourages the CHEAPEST manufacturing from their vendors. With big oil….at least their is a middle class.

  14. Hedge funds on average make 82% profits

    Harvard University- 34 Billion in endowments.

    People forget that Oil is global not just a US market.

  15. Average petroleum industry wage:$25.00 per hour plus.and lucrative benefit package.
    WalleyWorld average wage$9.00 with limited access to any benefits.
    Who’s screwing the American people?

  16. Are you kidding? I **** Wal-mart and I always have… their deceptive “we’re your naighborhood store”

  17. They don’t they **** Walmart too. What they won’t talk about is that oil companies, for all of their hard work, make about 8 cents on every gallon of gas and the federal government who did sqwat to get you the gas takes 15 cents in taxes on every gallon.

  18. because you can buy your stuff anywhere you want, walmarts not the only store, you need the gas, it is prevalent to living…

  19. Nah, if WalMart was charging me $4 for a soda to make their profits… when just a few years ago they were charging me $1 and still doing well.. then I’d be a little peeved.

    but soda has only gone from $1 to $1.27… my wallet, my job and my lifestyle aren’t effected by that $0.27.

    I have other reasons to not like Wally World :)

  20. Big oil makes a lot more profit than that. And overall they toast WalMart profits.
