We’re all three-time losers. We pay at the pump, the CEOs get it all, and global warming is coming like a freight train. Ain’t it fun?

To the person that said we have a never ending supply of oil, your all wet.
Scientist have recently discovered that in the middle of the earth is a gigantic ball bearing. Once all the oil is pumped out, this earth will come to a screetching hault. Talk about the great spin off! Paints a mental picture of people “FLIPPING OUT”
Or are they already flipping out?

On the issue of having a never ending supply of oil.
Your all wet, who ever made that statement.
Scientist have recently discovered that in the center of the earth is a gigantic ball bearing. Once we pump all the oil out, this earth will come to a screeching hault. Talk about the great spin off.What a mental picture that is, can’t you just see it!, Guess you can call that,”Flipping Out”

So much for trying to be a nice guy and playing by the rules. In this day & age, it’s I’ll get mine and the hell with you.Nothing is ever going to be done about this unfair playing feild.Can you even begin to imagine what goes on behind closed doors, things we will never know about? Oh yes they do play by the golden rule do they not, you know… who ever owns the gold makes the rules.And Justice is spelled… JUST-US.
These people and their elk are far worse than any criminal that’s serving time behind bars.Pity the poor… the one who has no money and attempts to cash a fifty dollar check for food and winds up getting a three year prison sentence. Hope they enjoy their wind fall now, for their nightmare will come in their solitude hours, when restless sleep finds them tossing and turning, and their decrepit minds can find no peace from deep within their dark black souls. I beg to ask, is this the America we want, is this what young men and women are dying for? God help us all if you answer in the affirmative, for the rest of us… GOD HELP US, for no one else is.

To the person saying oil was a fossil fuel, you might want to do a little research on ‘Abiotic’ which says oil is formed in the mantle of the Earth by natural process. This is why some empty oil fields are now full of oil again. Thus oil proves nothing torwards the “THEORY” of evolution. God made the planet this way to give us a never ending fuel supply.

The ONLY way to stop this kind of behavior is to STOP buying the products these corpo-RAPE-tions produce. How many times to we need to be beaten over the head to realize we are attracting exactly what we are saying we DO NOT WANT in our country. We bitch about jobs heading overseas, illegal immigration running rampant, Washington, D.C. being a den of wolves and thieves, the FED Reserve, (which by the way IS NOT a federal institution but a PRIVATELY owned corporation…look it up, get off your ass and do a little research and find out for yourselves)…I tell you this, dig just a LITLLE deeper than your comfort level will allow and you too will start to see the REAL world around you and begin to realize it is OUR FAULT for the way things are. When you see hordes of people waving flags and chanting down with the USA in OTHER countries, you so conveniently call them fanatical and idiotic…but I tell you this, they are EMPOWERING themselves to create change in their lives, not simply complaining about it like we have come to do! Down deep in your heart, you admire their tenacity and vigor, and WANT TO DO THE SAME, but don’t because of 23 different excuses we have for complacency!! I am guilty too, I do not live in a glass house…but I am unable to continue down the same path any longer and am praying for guidance and wisdom from our Creator to have the courage to leave my comfort zone and start making a real difference in our world…it is changing rapidly folks, and soon many will be saying,” How did we get here?”

When is the last time you saw thousands of people marching on Washington to show our disdain and anger and frustration with our government for NOT obeying and abiding by the Constitution, WE THE PEOPLE have the RIGHT and POWER to remove ALL ENEMIES, foreign AND DOMESTIC!

GEORGE W. and his necon cronies ARE DOMESTIC ENEMIES and puppets of ZION!! He actually stated the Constitution is nothing more than a “Goddamned piece of paper”…HE is the Decider…and yet we say nothing…are you afraid of what your friends will say if you disagree? Afraid of being labeled a fanatic? A conspiracy theorist? Fundamentalist? BOO FRIGGIN HOO…do you know why cry at movies that have an underdog for the hero….because he stands up for what he believes in even after having his ass handed to him time after time, and yet he soldiers on in the name of integrity and justice, honor and love. And secretly, we want to have that amount of courage to say what we really feel in our hearts, not what everyone agrees to as the norm. We are pussies and you know it!

I have gotten to the point where I do not care any longer how wacked or crazy people think I am in regards to these beliefs…I LOVE THIS COUNTRY and the people within it’s borders…my children live here as well and I am ashamed of the future are we preparing them for…all so we can have a dream only a small percentage will ever achieve at the expense of the majority.

I am not articulate or as educated as others, but you do not need a degree to see the truth! I have a heart, a conscience and a desire to live life fully and joyfully and happily along with every other person on this planet….it is our right as human beings. This planet belongs to NO ONE!!

Earth is home to all of us, lets start treating it as such.

Love,

pauley

It’s time to turn the whole oil-gas energy industry into a regulated utility.
We could at least have some say in our own backyard and end Enron,
Exxon, Mobil and Sandard, Lukoil and bid on a competitive energy basis.

This whole industry is a corrupt bunch of thieves and charlatans.

Cultures that extoll the preception that wealth equates with virtue and are treated as one and the same are doomed to excess and failure. This man has neither discovered a cure for anything directly or relieved human suffering by personal sacrifice. He is no Schweitzer. He is only the reflection of excess. His wealth will insulate him and his family for a very very long time from the struggles the rest of us go through and if he supports the right lobbies etc.,this can go on for ever.
How is it that a society can reward that much to such a man , when men are dying for his right to that compensation on the sands of Iraq? Their insurance policy’s death benefit doesn’t even come close.

I would like to see our new congress help this guy manage his new wealth by:

1) Increasing the tax rate to 90% (or more) for his windfall.
2) Increasing the estate tax to make sure his greedy family doesn’t see a single dime of whats left after the hefty income tax.
3) Seize his home and assets for sale for public distribution.
4) Investigate Exxon for price fixing and profiteering.
5) Increase corporate tax rates to 90 %, and get that money back into public hands.

My suggestion is someone needs to trademark the phrase “mother fuc*&%@ greedy Exxon bastards” and charge a royalty everytime someone uses it. With that amount of money raised, you could buy Exxon twice over!

[...] This kind of story just disgusts me. I’ve already reported on this, but there seems to be no end to the level of deception and planetary debauchery these corporate monstrosities are willing to embrace.Â This isn’t a “distraction” enough – this is time for a honest-to-God-clean-the-house people’s revolution and throw these greedy sucking vortexes into a black hole of death.

How can anyone justify accepting this kind of dollar amount. I can bearly keep $1000 in my checking account and people like this are awarded these outragous sums.

Capitalism sucks.
The stock market sucks.

Makes me kinda think the wrong side won the cold war.

That Lucky, fat, ugly, bastard, former CEO got over on everybody! Maybe he can now get a facelift, lipo, hair transplant and a new heart that cares for others not just profit! Fat chance on the new heart! Enron Rules! Shalom.

Exxon is not the only oil company that pays such hugh amounts to the CEO. ConocoPhillips has a CEO that resigned under his employment contract, but has remained as CEO. He is just working without a contract. He did this so that he could cash in some stock options that were part of his compensation package. He could not cash them in while employed under the contract. He cashed them in at $38/share and within two days sold them off at $88/share. How this is not insider trading, I do not know.

The bastard will get everything he deserves… having $400,000,000 is a curse. He and his family will be targets for kidnapping, theft, murder… he will easily spend 300 million just protecting the rest and his own life and the lives of his family.

Don’t ever envy the criminally rich… they drown in their gold, and reap what they have sown and so richly deserve.
