A Friendly Divorce Agreement

Excellent letter that I'll bet did no get an answer. After reading about all the oil and coal subsidies I'm wondering why we have to even pay for our gas at the pump. After all, our taxes are already paying for it. I didn't have a clue that even wages were being subsidized.

I have read that the oil companies whine that, without the subsidies, they won't have money to drill new domestic wells.

Then I read that companies are making obscene record profits.

Bullshit! They have plenty of money; they just want more of it.

They are worse than insurance companies who had record profits the years of Ivan and Katrina, even after paying the claims they couldn't avoid paying..

Remember, this is nowhere close to representing "all" the subsidies that fossils receive. E, you are completely right... they make money hand over fist, they just want more of it, and hey, the free kind is the best kind.
