kschilk 0 #17 May 25, 2008 Almost!?! It's time to show the oil companies what "global warming" really means.

Gawain 0 #21 May 25, 2008 Quote Gas rises in price twenty cents a month. In the last two weeks it jumped 20 cents. I hope they arent trying to double their profits again. Its almost time to fucking revolt. I don't mean to send this to SC, but with an overall margin of 7-8%, the petroleum companies are not the problem. The local, state and federal government make more off a gallon of gas, and they did nothing to get it. Worldwide demand has not decreased despite US demand leveling off. Nobody seems to bitch about Microsoft's 23+% margins for their crappy products. So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!
