Exxon Reports an $80,000 profit every second

Yes, ExxonMobile earned over $10,490,000,000 in profit last quarter.

That's $806,923,077 per week
That's $115,274,725 per day
That's $4,803,114 per hour
That's $80,052 per second

IN PROFIT!

They are whores. They should be returning this to the consumer at the pump, not pocketing it. Listen, I am a business man - and everyone deserves a profit - but at what cost? At whose cost?

Give some back, Exxon - show that you care about the people, even if it's just a little.
