It's really bad here. Not ONLY do we do this, but we also subsidize oil like it's going out of style. Oh wait. It is.
We just can't quit that abusive oily dick, though. In fact we keep waiting by the phone hoping they will call us back.
Meanwhile, inflation is ridiculous, people can't afford houses or groceries.
But if prices don't go up, the profits won't increase! Why doesn't anybody think of the poor shareholders, trying to barely eke out an income from their holdings?
