Title: We should all fall on our knees and thank ...

Exxon (and all other large oil companies) for constantly looking out for our best interests. They have managed to eke out a small profit (41 percent increase...that means 41% more than they were already making) by the old supply and demand law. They have just answered the bell by reducing production (doing less work) and charging more to consumers and in the same breath say they are concerned they cannot keep up with consumer demand. I think I'll write them a $100.00 bonus check just for taking such good care of us. http://money.msn.com/business-news/article.aspx?feed=AP&date=20111027&id=14445659


Title: Oops, my bad. Make that 53%, I get so confused...

What's 12% more on a few hundred billion? Chump change.
