Exxon's Record Profits

Come on?! really?! I can't believe there aren't more mechanisms in place to prevent such gross inequity of riches.

And they pulled it off at a time of soaring energy prices, production problems in Venezuela, strikes in Nigeria, I could go on. And yet their shareholders are disappointed?!?!?!

Where do their profits come from? Our pockets, our land, our oceans, our people, our legacy!How will it's shareholders spend their winnings? On more shit that they don't need, generating more garbage, more GHG emissions, more pollution, more inequity and less peace.

That's the simplified version of what I have to say on the issue.
