CNN.com - Senate panel questions gasoline price hikes - April 26, 2001

I have a theory: schoolyard bullies grow up to run oil companies. I'm just throwing that out there, don't know if it will stick or not. The scary thing is, these oil companies work together to screw us consumers for maximum profits. Now, I'm sure any capitalist would say that this is a good thing, but it seems to me that too much of that profit ends up outside my country's borders, and that doesn't sit well with me. High gas prices are going to hurt our economy even more, especially here in Canada, where we rely so heavily on tourism dollars. But as long as a bunch of sheiks are running around with gold-plated Rolls-Royces, I guess that's all right.
