The idiots who are claiming
    "oil companies recording their highest profits in history - in 
BILLIONS,"
consistently IGNORE the fact that the same oil companies are spending 
HUNDREDS of Billions to GENERATE those profits
Were they more intelligent or honest, they would NOT be talking ABSOLUTE 
dollars but instead would be talking about the RATE OF RETURN on INVESTMENT
The ROR for most oil companies is about 8%
Which means that for the oil companies spend over 100 BILLION dollars for 
EACH each 8 Billion dollars in profit.
