If your post is in reference to gas,, you do realize that it's OPEC setting oil prices, right? And OPEC is other countries, our government doesn't control them. And you realize that about 70 cents of every gallon of gas is taxes, so really not that huge of a profit just to the american companies,,, though I'm sure they do make more than they "need to", but you don't start a business just so you can scrape by.
