What's amazing is you rocket scientists think that eliminating billions in tax breaks for the big five oil companies will magically cause gasoline to go to $9 a gallon.
Do you know how gasoline is purchased for use within this country?
Apparently not.
"OMG, we can't get rid of tax breaks for Big Oil, they own us! They are holding us hostage for that money! We are victims of Big Oil extortion! We can't tell them to get off the government teat, they'll harm us! Give them more money! Give them the money! We love you, Big Oil - have some more tax breaks! You're just private companies, but you own the US government and hold us hostage to your private profit! "
Good lord. You'd think you guys who are all about small government and fix the deficit would stand up to massive private corporate bullies and their owned government Congressmen and Senators that are stealing your money. Instead of excusing the behaviour and enabling them. Let alone being afraid of them!
