Thanks for the .pdf from 2005!
And all of its many, many pages.
In no way do such rates constitute "oil welfare".
The term "oil welfare" implies that oil companies are simply being givenmoney without making any kind of return to the public, which is clearly not the case.
Now............................................... .................................................. .....
Let's raise tax rates for oil companies........................................
Increased tax rates are considered to be "costs".
"costs" are passed along to the end user, the ultimate consumer.
You.
How much are YOU will ing to pay? We already got fucking $4.00 per gallon gas (Well, not quite.) My fill up today was ONLY $3.82 per gallon and the oil companies make exactly the same amount at $3.82 as they do at $1.50 per gallon. About 9 FUCKING CENTS!)
Would you rather conserve, recycle and resuse or kill more Americans in OIL WARS?
And by the way, I have opposed oil wars forever.
