I agree Virg. I'm an old oilfield engineer. I made very good money also from the oil patch. Even invested in some wells. I have already run into some companies that have tried an end run around Sarbanes-Oxley. Unbelievable.
Rich, I understand that traders in Chicago are running the futures up and down, but Exxon isn't just sitting their saying, "Well, we really don't have anything to do with our profit... We depend on those traders in Chicago to determine our profit and loss statements." Again, I'm not against profit. It just that once you get used to having a lot of money coming in, it's really hard to change that momentum. Look at Congress...
