Bush Energy Policy - Wars for NO Oil - Increases Profits

[Miss Chybil]

How can oil companies increase their profits without having to put out much in the way of research, or adding new refineries with their inherent costs for labor, construction, etc.? The oil companies are raking in record profits, not for what they have done to provide us with MORE oil, but by what they, and their political lapdogs, have done to provide us with LESS!

1. Its all about supply and demand. Decrease the former and drive up the

latter. That's the road to riches in any oligopoly. Make that oiligopoly.

2. And the oil guys in the White House have it all down pat...

I like that, "oiligopoly." Too bad so many people have to die for their money.
