That's basically what it boils down to. Don't believe me? Have a look yourself. Do you think she'd say that about Krispy Kreme? Do you think that she'd say "I'd like to take Krispy Kreme's profits and put them towards a free gym membership for everyone". Of course not. What Hillary doesn't tell you is that she can't legally do that. Sure, Congress could pass more taxes onto oil companies, but who do you think is going to pay for that? Oil companies are just like any other corporation. Sometimes they make money, sometimes they lose it. A barrel of oil is sitting at $55 and in July it was at $78 a barrel, so of course profits are going to be larger. You didn't hear this kind of talk when oil was at $10-20 a barrel in the 90's. With government taxes, local levies, and additives that make gas cleaner to burn, gas is always going to go up. OPEC has more to do with the cost of gas then oil companies could ever dream of having.
