I hold stock in Exxon Mobil Corporation.....My father worked for them for
nearly 40 years. You too, could hold stock in them.....It's as close as
your
telephone.....Easier than ordering some film from a website on the
internet.
If they are stealing so much money from the rest of the world, why don't
you
ride in their getaway car, and start counting the ill-gotten gains
yourself?

I have no interest in becoming part of the problem.

I am a capitalist, and proud of it....As soon as an alternative fuel
source is developed that costs one cent per mile less than gasoline,
there
will appear an "Alt-on" Corporation that outsells Exxon, and I will sell
my
Exxon stock and buy Alton. - That's the way it works, Bub.....

A sustainable widely available alternative fuel source has not been and
will
not be developed because vested interests prevent its development, this is
not going to change without instigation from government, if the government
is in bed with those same vested interests that prevent positive
profitable
change (environmental,social and financial), then that is not capitalism,
it's corruption of capitalist ideals.

Nonsense! - This is the old, battery that holds 10 times the
charge/carburetor that gets 100 mpg paranoid anti-capitalist argument that I
have been hearing all of my life. How come when I worked for industry nobody
told me to stop doing research on certain selected items, or to not work on
any good ideas? There are plenty of alternative fuel sources, but they all
suffer from one important problem....None of them are cheaper per mile than
gasoline. Even using old deep fry grease as diesel fuel costs a few cents
more per mile than gasoline, so the only ones using it are those who want to
boycott the oil companies. American oil companies have kept the price of
gasoline to the American public down to like one half what they pay for it
in Europe for over 30 years now, and they do this in spite of the taxes we
pay to both state and federal government for it. It cost about 10 cents a
gallon to make gasoline from 1920 to 1950 in this country.....Every cent
over that was due to government taxes. - I doubt seriously if it costs very
much more than about a dollar a gallon even today, some 50 years later. If
capitalist ideals have been corrupted, it hasn't been the oil companies who
did it......Look to government greed and interference for that.......
