Exxon and Chevron rack up giant quarterly profits.

Democrats are retarded baboons. The OP is repeating the stupidity of democrats in congress who scolded oil execs in 2006 because their profits increased. Their profits increase because democrats drove up the cost of energy and everyone still needs to buy that energy even at its high price.
Democrats are retarded baboons.
 
It is not in the interests of the republic that one business sector have so much control over so much in so many ways.
 
Just remember when Fox News tells you that high prices are all Biden's fault, that companies like Exxon and Chevron are merely protecting themselves from him by passing on higher costs to you. It's really Biden's fault.



Exxon Mobil and Chevron, the largest U.S. oil companies, reported on Friday a fourth consecutive quarter of robust profits on the back of high oil and natural gas prices and strong chemical and refining earnings.

But the companies remain cautious as they face uncertain future prices because of a weakening global economy and international conflict.

Exxon’s profit of $19.7 billion from operations topped the previous quarter’s $17.9 billion. The oil giant’s latest quarterly profit was nearly triple what it made in the same period last year. It cited oil and natural gas output as major contributors, along with cost cutting.

The company said its production in the Permian Basin of Texas and New Mexico was its highest ever, as was the volume of its North American refining. “The investments we’ve made, even through the pandemic, enabled us to increase production to address the needs of consumers,” Darren Woods, the chief executive, said in a statement.

The company said it was continuing a policy of disciplined investing, not budging from budget plans set before oil prices spiked following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Mr. Woods said the company was committed to “rigorous cost control.”

Unless I'm reading this wrong, looks like 19B is kinda average
 
/——-/ Oil companies earn profit by supplying needed energy and employs hundreds of thousands. Actually their profit per gallon of gas is rather small compared to say an iPhone or cup of burnt coffee.
They know that, and it's been shown to them. Private enterprise is the scourge with them

Who the fuck cares what Exxon made in a quarter when Congress sends 4 times that to the Ukrainian Money Laundering in 2 minutes!???

Who or What’s the left going to blame next?

Bush! Cheney! HALIBURTON! No blood for oil!

Energy prices are high all over the globe you ignorant f-ing TWIT!

Doesn't have anything to do with American tribal politics.

Stop swallowing anything your right-wing programmers feed you!

Katy Porter agrees!

Katie Porter uses chart to show corporate greed drives inflation

"During a House of Representatives hearing on Wednesday, United States Congresswoman Katie Porter (D-California) grilled Mike Konczal, the director of Macroeconomic Analysis at the Roosevelt Institute, over the primary cause of inflation in the post-COVID-19 economy.

"Equipped with one of her easy-to-read, data-filled posters, Porter got Konczal to admit that surging corporate profits are forcing American consumers to pay significantly more for goods and services.

"'According to this chart, what is the biggest driver of inflation during the pandemic? The blue – the dark blue is the recent period,' Porter pointed out.

""'t would be corporate profits,' Konczal confirmed.

"'And what is that percentage?' Porter asked.

"'It is 54 percent,' Konczal replied, 'and that number does stay that level of high if you update that number to more recent numbers as well.'

"Porter asked if that meant that 'over half of the increased prices people are paying are coming from increases in corporate profits?'"
 
Energy prices are high all over the globe you ignorant f-ing TWIT!

/——/ We were energy independent and exported oil until Dementia Joe screwed the pooch.
 
/——/ We were energy independent and exported oil until Dementia Joe screwed the pooch.

And using the definition given by the Trumpers we are still energy independent.

And we are exporting more oil and NG than at any time in our nations history.

Believe what you want...but here are the facts.

/———-/ I take the word of Institute for Energy Research over that of some insufferable twats.
U.S. energy production in 2019 was higher than U.S. energy consumption for the first time in 62 years. Thus, the U.S. attained the long-held goal of “energy independence”—which is not to say that we did not import or export energy, but that we produced more energy than we used.

Hey!
Your link is bullshit, coal & oil industry marketing propaganda.
And I'll bet you didn't even know that did you?

Of course you probably could have gotten at least SOME clue to the slant of this thing by the tone of this last paragraph.

You are such a good little sheeple.

Conclusion

Despite the major push for renewable energy by environmentalists, fossil fuels still produce the majority of the energy that we consume today. Renewable energy’s share of the 2019 U.S. energy consumption market has only grown by 4 percentage points in 62 years, despite costing the taxpayer billions of dollars in subsidies. One only needs to watch the Michael Moore film, Planet of the Humans, to understand the folly in using taxpayer money to promote renewable energy, after we have finally achieved domestic energy independence.
 
About time we get off of petroleum, climate change, so how are the oil gas markets going to last, soak us to death. Pretty soon we will see 10 per gallon wont that make you feel good.

Believe what you want, but nobody disputed it when it happened - not even you LIbtards.

Now hows abouts Forbes? How are you gonna slam this messenger?
It is true that in 2019 our net imports of crude oil and finished products flipped from positive to negative. By that metric, we became energy independent (at last as far as our oil consumption goes). It is also true that Donald Trump was president when this happened for the first time in October 2019.
