Well, this just in one the Ethanol market, that lovely new fuel that everyone was so happy about isn't as good as they think it is. Not only is it more expensive than gasoline and get's you less gas mileage, come to find out it produces more CO2 exhaust emissions that gasoline. Kinda funny is you ask me, just another case of lets hurry something through and put it on the market before we finish research testing.

Before people start demanding boycotts and companies like Exxon to reduce their profit margins to keep fuel prices down I have one question.

How many of you have retirement accounts through your employer ?
After figuring that out, how many of your retirement accounts have money invested in oil commodities. So before you go harping on oil companies making a buck, you might want to realize that in the long run, you also made a buck.

I dont really understand what everyone is getting all upset about. When Hillary is president, she will "take those profits" for the govt. So you have only a few more years of big oil and Hillary will take it to them.

Communism at its finest.
