Very true. Probably because it costs more to operate them than they produce in income when oil is $30 a barrel.
If you have some gold coins sitting in a safe deposit box, and you expect prices to go up, would you sell them now, or would you wait?
Might I suggest that you learn how to properly quote and reply instead of making it look like I posted your responses?
thanks,
Ken
mia culpa, sorry

Well, greed is alive and well. Gas went up another $.10 a gallon yesterday to $2.59. That's $.20 a gallon in one week.

This another reason we are staying close to home this summer  . Luckily I was able to fill the MH tank with $1.91 gasoline last month.

I had $1.37 gas and replaced it with $2.19 gas and it looks like replacing it after this weekend is going to cost $2.53.

Yeah, we've been running deficits for 8 years and the dollar fell 40% during the previous administration. You just noticed?

They don't even have to print it anymore. All they do is select a menu item on the computer and suddenly more money is created in the computerized financial system. Actual printed money is only about $900billion, and only about half of that can be accounted for. The rest is in the covert 'black' money market.

I guess Big Oil is the last giant that Nationalization will aim at.

Big oil is a myth. Exxon is the largest oil company in the US ad is number 14 in the world. We control about 5 % if the world’s resources. It would be multiply times more, but our liberal congress has seen fix to put almost all of our fossil fuels off limits. This includes our shale oil in 3 western states that has more oil than mankind has used to date. The problem is not our oil companies, but out congress who has emasculated our companies getting our god given natural resources. Their ability to drill for oil, gas, and coal has forced us to purchase over $700 billion from countries who hate us. Lets not even think about having these companies be taken over by the government who as a habit of fouling up just about everything. When you start paying that $4 per gallon soon, realize that we have the resources to have it half the price, but congress will not allow us to exploit it.
