Ever wonder where our dollars are going? You can bet those at Shell Oil and ExxonMobile don’t have to worry! It’s so easy for them to blame the local gas stations, when in fact, they have record earnings. It seems whenever there is the slightest unrest in any oil related country, our oil companies quickly jack up the prices and point and blame. Sadly, when that happens others join in. Fuel surcharges on airline tickets have soared — it’s another way to hike ticket prices and … point the blame elsewhere.
Profits soar as oil companies victimized again by high gas prices.

I’m not sure which I’m beginning to hate more — the oil companies or the airlines.
