While a woman collects $200 a month in food stamps, big oil gets billions in welfare...
Guess which one people will care the most about?

It's official.  They've given up.

Okay, DUmmies, here it is.  Your beloved Dear Reader is talking about $4 billion a year in subsidies to the oil industry to cover keeping American versus foreign engineers, etc.  In return, these companies pay a ****ing HUGE amount of taxes.

Consider Exxon-Mobil.  In one year, that ONE company paid to the US government over $105 billion in taxes.

And that's ONE company of many in the oil industry.  So you're going to bitch about what basically amounts to less than 1-2 percent of what these companies send to the US Treasury?  To the states?  Are you ****ing SERIOUS?

I am the 50.5 percent, ****sticks.  I've just about had it with your whiny bullshit.
