Do you think the oil companies would "take one" for the average Joe and maybe lower prices? Nah, I do not think so, These oil companies and their executives still continue to rake in millions and billions. They have made a 300% increase in profits in 2022 compared to 2021 alone. 302 Moved

So what the profits they are making . Gas is there when you pull up to the pumps is that not good ? would you rather it be rationed ? How about someone coming into your business and tells you "your profits are to much , lower your profit margin " and then tell you what you can do and not do . Again the oil companies are not owned by a family or single individual its owned by shareholders who count on dividends for there livelihood . This country runs on energy and you have a government that wants to MAKE US SUFFER for a cause that is not a FACT but a belief . Nothing wrong with EV cars but let free enterprise take control of it without the government that not to many people trust .
And how exactly is the government making you "suffer". You just said it's okay for the oil companies to take advantage of a bad situation and make record profits.
... the USA is producing roughly 12M barrels of oil per day, higher than at any time in US history including during the Bush/ Obama/ Trump presidency.
Oil companies and refiners are enjoying record profits. The Biden administration is asking these companies to reinvest some of these profits into increasing production.
Around 2008 I worked for a copier manufacturer direct (won't say who to protect me). At the time we provided our own service vehicles, got a flat $250/mo and 12 cents/mile reimbursement and gas was around $2. Then gas began it's slow climb to nearly $4. Our regional service vp told us they were losing money on service contracts that were based on $2 gas. So they cut the flat rate to $150/month and kept 12 cents/mile when gas had nearly doubled. He said we had to take one for the team and besides we could deduct it when we itemized our taxes. Shortly after that, all the rats abandonded the sinking ship, myself included. What a butthead, he comes driving in his Mercedes with his golf clubs in the back seat and tells us to take one for the team. Most of us were losing 200-300/mo just to work for this direct. What a joke.
I've proved mathematics wrong. 1 + 1 doesn't always equal 2.........

Trucker Issues Warning -- They’re Running Out of Diesel Fuel
If truckers cannot afford fuel, goods are not going to get to stores. You big city folks better stock up on emergency rations cause I don't think that you are going to be able to grow enough fruits and vegetables in couple of flower pot.
And I'm not just talking about groceries. It is everything. Better hope your ice box doesn't die because the big box stores just might be out in the very near future.
More fear for the fox audience from the liar who had to have his legal team say his program was all lies and made up in order to save him from being sued.
