Yada yada socialist yada yada No one makes higher profits than Big Oil, regardless of percentage. Percentage means nothing when the price of oil skyrockets. If Exxon makes $20b profit w/oil at $30 and $200b profit when oil hits $300, is that right? I don't think so - they didn't make that extra profit on product innovation or by being a better company - they made it because they are a Hydra-monopoly during a period of global destabilitzation. In times like this, when global stability is at a precipice, we need to put US first. If that means limiting the absolute profits of Big Oil, or forcing them to reinvest it, then its something we have to do. We're in a global economic death match with China, and we're losing. Time to use our strength.
