Yeah poor Exxon. Grow a conscience, man. Screw Exxon. Anyway, they will be fine with theri 50 billion in cash, particularly if they start re-investing their gouged billions into clean fuels programs and helkp the nation for once. But they won't do it voluntarily, they will have to be forced into helping their country. And that will take democrats back in control. Bush Republians are bought and paid for by big oil.

>>Well it might be hard on those that own a lot of Exxon stock, if we tried to transition away from oil during the course of a single generation - but it would be hard on almost everyone. Think something like the great depression in the US, and mass starvation in Africa. Exxon stock is hardly the important factor in such an economic calamity.<< Tim - What in Hell are you talking about?
