Profit gouging is gouging no matter the industry

But how is 10% profit margin, during the good times in a cyclical industry gouging?

When I said gouging I didn't mean XOM specifically even though its sounds that way. What I was really trying to say [and it was late when I made that post] is that no matter the size of a profit, if the industry effects a lot of consumers, particularly those living on the edge, then that industry is more likely to get attacked for its profits no matter how big or small they are.
