The oil companies are really raking in the cash now...
Oil below $100.00 a barrel and the price at the pump back up to where it was when oil was almost $150.00 a barrel. Talking about gouging!

3. Any excuse will do and
When you multiply this latest additional $.35 a gallon by the millions of gallons a day that Americans are buying to get to work and school and it turns into grand theft in a jiffy. I guess we will pay Exxon's part of the GOP's campaign money in the next couple of weeks.

2. Standing up to Big Oil
Who is standing up and screaming about this? No one in the corporate media. No one on the campaign trail. Not many in congress.

Most everyone takes money from Big Oil in Washington, either directly or indirectly. This has to change.
