Oh, and sorry for working to raise taxes on you, and make you pay for carbon offsets, and then to tax any dividends you pay your (remaining) shareholders much higher.

Please lower prices to consumers, real quickly. You all make really high margins, right?

Want to decrease the cost of fuel tell Uncle Sam to quit taking 80% of the money made.

Couldn't they lower the price of gas by watering it down? Like milk. 2% unleaded. 1% unleaded.
Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

Aren't many of the big o&g companies having their boards taken over by activist?
There have been some successful shareholder proposals that got passed, and I do think XOM had a change to their board last go round and an activist was installed, if I recall correctly.

Three ****ing activists were elected to the board.

They're going to destroy XOM from the inside. **** me and my shares sideways.

Yes, thanks. Thought I recall that because I voted against them and their b.s. every year. And they finally overtook the sane shareholders.

it's getting exhausting clicking POTD blue stars on almost every post in this thread.

I guess Biden Admin pleading with OPEC to increase production didn't get the job done? Are they not yet playing nice in their global communist utopia fantasy land after we cut off our own nose to spite our face? Now they have to ask the oil execs for "help"?

How are they going to help after Biden Admin sicks OSHA on all of their and their service companies' management to force shots or fire everyone who isn't vaxxed?

I hope the O&G company execs illustrate how they make pennies for margin on a barrel of oil, which can cost a billion dollars and many years to explore, develop build infrastructure (real infrastructure - not Dem infrastructure), and start producing, while the CEO of Starbucks makes like an 80% margin on every cup of coffee. The leftists have vilified these oil guys for being too greedy and rich... not one oil exec makes as much as Nancy Pelosi makes in the market.

The feds make more in taxes on a gallon of gas than any oil company does.

The execs should tell Brandon to start by suspending fed gas taxes.

Create a problem to guide your soluition... Next steps will be to seize the means of oil production in the US to "control the price" as Chavez did.

I wouldn't rule out some "public-private partnership" b.s. that the Democrats try to push for so that they can do this.

Shouldn't they be high-fiving each other? I read on here all the time about how oil prices need to be higher.

As we keep saying, Progressives have zero clue about how Economics actually work.
Why do people keep giving progressives the benefit of the doubt? You're assuming they want to improve the economy. Many of the policies they implement would OBVIOUSLY hurt the economy. Nobody is as dumb as they pretend to be.

Their "blunders" all go in one direction - to hurt the economy. Just maybe consider that there's a reason we call them enemies of the state and that they are actually trying to hurt the economy.

Permian operators not too woke to tell Brandon: "Stop being stupid."
We may not always get what we want. We may not always get what we need. Just so we don't get what we deserve.

Dude .. federal gas tax. It's an obvious exaggeration for a more impactful statement.
Buy a man eat fish, he day, teach fish man, to a lifetime.

I think that, to be very honest with you, I do believe that we should have rightly believed, but we certainly believe that certain issues are just settled.

I understand that.


But, a nice graph would be good to have handy. I'm sure it exist.

Found one. I agree, lower the taxes on production and sale and lower the price. Reduce federal red tape, bans. Etc, and lower the price.


On a side note, using too much hyperbole weakens one's argument.

Yep. There's a reason those progs are being put on the BODs. Socialists always want to nationalize key industries.

I was thinking about suggesting you wear a LGB T-shirt, but that would draw attention from a very different group.

The one I posted is straight gas taxes. If you add in all the times the product is taxed yours is probably more accurate.

The problem with that one from a Fed perspective is that most of those tax dollars are state taxes unless they are producing on a federal lease.

I paid $3.09 just north of College Station just this afternoon heading home from a conference. Everything in town was $3 for unleaded. We are getting closer to this rate.

But they will create no wealth and value.

Like Milton Freeman said when he saw workers digging with shovels while a backhoe sat idle, and was told it created more jobs to dig with shovels...

give em spoons then and hire more.
