Sorry, the cries about oil company profits only bring jeers. The profit on oil is minuscule compared to insurance, banking, securities, or government.

I have no problem with businesses making a profit. But when that profit affects inflation because every form of transportation used petroleum. Of coarse that cost of fuel impacts every family and the supply chain. I am less impacted by it because I am no longer commuting, store I use is less than two blocks away. Medical is two miles from the house.
