I had no idea state taxes were this high.
At least the state and federal governments spend the money well!

Seriously, when "big oil" is profitable anyone who holds shares makes some money too, from Wall Street to most folks with a 401K.

The congressional hearings where the politicians grill the oil co. execs always struck me as the ultimate expression of hypocrisy.

Best,
