I heard on the news that an oil company (can't remember which one) has seen the largest quarterly profit gain of any company in US history. Looks like they are doing pretty well.
My opinion on big oil is that the oil companies realize oil is an outdated energy source and are doing anything in their power to artificially raise the price of it. They will hinder growth in other energy forms even by starting their own alternative energy campaigns and purposely comprimising them if they cannot gain a monopoly like share of it. This also means going to war to gain larger market shares, and creating bottlenecks at the refineries.
