the oil companies are experiencing? In what other industry do WE have to pay for them not budgeting maintenance costs into their overall plan? And plant reconfigurations seasonally? Why is that my problem (though obviously it is)?
This is pretty infuriating.

1. Well they feel your money
is theirs and the sooner it's in their pocket the better. They're neocon corporate thieves. It's what they do. It is past time to regulate that industry.
