And I Thought This Was Evil…

Gas at $3.69 a gallon

This is nothing compared to this…

Gas at $4.59 a gallon

And this…

Exxon Mobil announced Thursday a first-quarter profit of $10.6 billion — a 69% increase from last year, and a number so astronomical, Exxon executives felt the need to issue defensive statements in advance.1 Also unveiling massive earnings were Shell ($6.3 billion, up 30%), ConocoPhillips ($3 billion, up 44%), and of course, BP (7.1 Billion, up 16%). In all, the five largest oil companies have reaped nearly $1 trillion in profits in the last 10 years.”

Please pay attention to “First quarter profit.” I can’t even image what their annual profit will looking like.  But I can tell you what your pockets are going to look like.

So, how do you feel about being pimped by big oil companies that are living very nicely off of your $4.00 plus purchase of gas?
