SOMEONE'S RAKING IN MONEY FROM ENDLESS OIL PRICE HIKES!


Apart from the companies, I wonder who has been RAKING IN MONEY NON-STOP with the endless increases in oil prices. 

Amassing riches LEGALLY or ILLEGALLY.

The oil companies are SLOWOLY KILLING US by BLEEDING OUR POCKETS DRY to a crisp and NOBODY in Government or among our lawmakers GIVES A DAMN!

NO SENATOR OR CONGRESSMAN has ever led an ACTUAL and LONG-TERM probe of the non-stop increases in oil prices.  Countless senators and congressmen have called for an audit or an investigation, yes. But was EVEN ONE EVER CONDUCTED?

One as lengthy and in-depth as the ongoing Senate investigation into anomalies in the military. I don’t recall one, IN ANY ADMINISTRATION. I will gladly correct myself if I’m wrong.

For the Government, no president has ever consistently called for, or expressed SERIOUS CONSIDERATION, for the REPEAL of the Oil Deregulation Law.

The Department of Energy (DOE), in any Administration since its creation, has NEVER conducted even A SINGLE PUBLIC hearing or investigation into the reasons being given by oil firms to raise prices.

If it ever did, surely it was a zarzuela of sorts that no one can even recall now.

Neither did the DOE make a consistent demand to the oil firms to open their books to justify their INSATIABLE LUST FOR MONEY, nor conducted any serious move to achieve this.

There have been instances in the past wherein the DOE  blamed the Oil Deregulation Law for its helplessness in controlling oil prices. But never did it call for the repeal, or review, of the law.

What the DOE has CONSISTENTLY DONE, with FLYING COLORS, is to be the DEFENDER of the oil firms by pointing to rising prices in the world market as the culprit.

As I‘ve written before, oil firms can raise prices anytime and no one in Government, the Senate or the House of Representatives would mind.

Bottom line, the oil firms' profits MUST NOT BE REDUCED EVEN BY A PESO. But if it’s the masa who will ask for means to survive the OBSESSION for money of the oil firms, a thousand and one  hearings or processes have to be conducted before it’s considered for action.

Don’t tell me guys that let’s wait for the oil companies to starve us and our families first before we GET TOGETHER, and act as one.
