Not having to pay all those employees and all the benefits and matching their payroll tax (so the govt. can double dip) is part of the reason that SOME corporations are making a killing.
And of course oil companies are just setting prices at any pricepoint they care too.
Bottom line is...so what? If you and I started a company and it went BIG and we started making MASSIVE profits and didn't need a lot of employees to conduct our business...so what? I'd love that.
Why should a corporation hire more people if they don't NEED them? That would be terrible business sense.
And what purpose would the evil corporations have to somehow make all the rest of us poor and/or destroy the economy? Eventually you have to SELL to somebody. And if nobody has money or a job then they can't buy your product and you're fucked.
