How is Exxon's business practice legal/good for the economy?
This article:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080201/ap_on_bi_ge/earns_exxon_mobil
highlights the problem. Exxon "posted the largest quarterly profit by a U.S. company", and
"also set a U.S. record for the biggest quarterly profit, posting net income of $11.7 billion for the final three months of 2007, beating its own mark of $10.71 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005.
The previous record for annual profit was $39.5 billion, which Exxon Mobil made in 2006."

The top 3 profit records now belong to Exxon.
What is wrong with this picture?

American businesses are fledgling from rising input and transportation costs, families struggle to fuel their vehicles and heat their homes, and yet big oil does better and better.
Can't we stop CEOs from bringing in outrageously excessive profits?

I'm not a EXXON expert, by no means, but there's a couple things about your premise that bother me...

1.) The top 3 profit records have to belong to someone, why is it that it's bad if an Oil Company has them?

2.) If you do a precursory serach of oil companies, it's most of them that are providing significant funds to alternative fuel research, but your argument makes it seem like they're only jacking the price up on gas... If gas is so expensive at $3/gallon, why do we, as Americans keep paying $4/cup at Starbuck's?

3.) Why would you want to stop a CEO from providing thins such as jobs, funding for scientific research, fudning for schools, funding for healthcare clinics, etc.?

The sad truth, is that Americans DEMAND petrochemicals much more than other countries. We use more oil & gas than the entire world...so, if big oil is so evil, than why do we keep paying them???

did you notice that Exxon's profit margin is a LOT SMALLER than MicroSoft's?? or Apple's?? or Google's??



hello?


Exxon made a lot by investing a lot and selling a lot, not by price gouging.

It is a small problem.

But PLEASE realize that Exxon has to have money to continue to buy oil at the new higher prices and to explore for more. It isn't free.

Also you need to realize that our federal and state treasuries make MORE MONEY THAN EXXON DOES on the gas sold.

How is that fair? If the government truly wanted to help us they would lower the taxes and control their spending and growth.

bwaaaahahahahahaaaaa

one can share your anguish but there is no immediate remedy.

in open economy-control free commerce, the happenings cannot be avoided.

the public suffering are because of monopoly, take up the issue under monopoly control laws, some justice can be expected.

there are certain things cannot be avoided, but common citizen have to live with it.
