They raise the price and make record profits and every piece of the supply chain gets more expensive and the consumer gets walloped. I’m not expecting immediate action. I’ve known pumping stuff out of the ground and burning it and dumping the waste into our atmosphere is bad for a long time. They have known longer than me.
And to me the timing doesn’t look accidental. Big oil lost money in 2020. Then a new prez takes over. One that didn’t name a big oil CEO as Secretary of State like Rex Tillerson. And like big powerful companies do they wield their power to get politicians helpful to their business back in power. Hence the price hikes.
What's their margin? Is it consistent?
