ConocoPhillips surpasses wall street forecasts by achieving nearly double of last year's quarterly profits.

Time to ride your bike to work! :lol:

 

Wow, thats great for the shareholders I suppose

 

If you read it right, the only reason they're getting richer faster is because of the record oil prices and sharply higher refining margins.

Blame the consumers for still buying the ---- overpriced and not taking a stand against it.

 

Hence I said "time to ride your bike to work"?

Anyways, consumption is inelastic.

 

holy crap the oil prices are killing me down here and they still making record profits ????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

some one shoot them

 

Didnt read that last part
what a contradiction on my part

 

It sucks i hate driving around here it costs way to much money

 

if you are mad about it, buy a hybrid car

 

its called price gouging

they shouldve gotten the oil companies for this a while ago

 

are you serious? i know its good for the enviroment and low on gas but have you even driven some of the hybrids around? its like driving a box with wheels and the dam car sounds like a dying wombat...

 

time to ride my skateboard to wherever i gotta go

 

Shoot the people who are making the patrol prices going up every darn day.

 

I'm sure they spent some of that extra 2 billion dollars to hire a couple bodyguards heh.
