How about pointing out where I made such a claim?

This is my first post in this thread by the way. :rolleyes:

I was listening to the president of the midwest oil refineries the other day. He indicated that Exxon Mobil made over 1.5 million dollars, per hour, every hour of 2004. That's not gross revenues, that's pure net profit in the bank. God I love capitalism!

Yeah, ain't it great? Now if some clever corporation could just figure out how to own all of the oxygen, and jack the price, it would truly be All-American! :)

Me too! How do I get my cut without risk of loss? Maybe I should read more of Karl Marx?
