And you know what the real tragedy in all this is?

The stock has hardly done anything over the past year.

It sure does juan. Take a look at the Bakken formation for example, and do some research on the drilling, production, and stimulation of those wells compared to the drilling, production, and stimulation of conventional wells. It's much more complicated and costly than the work my hubby's company was doing 10 years ago.
Heck, new barrels in the oil sands cost $75 to extract, up from $30 a few years ago.

The problem with the elite having so much power is that they are easier to organize than the great unclean masses they exploit. There is nothing innately superior about them except that. Their power is based on the fewness of their numbers and single minded self interest which is enough to devastate every society we manage to build despite them.
Yes, but we, I mean "they" do it well.

gerryh,
You are one selfish sick puppy! I am glad to see how small you think. The world is not about your well being only. You can sit and defend you mentor Harper but his days are numbered, because come election time your mentor will have his arss clipped.

Shows just how much of an idiot you are... have voted Liberal federally since I was old enough to vote...so that would have been Trudeau....have never voted conservitard my entire life.

Lets stop the name calling, I am proud of you, I get irritated when I hear that nothing we can do about the cost of gas. First off we the voters demand that the energy issue automobiles and housing will be addressed by the the federal government thereby insuring that free interprice will not hold the general populace hostage such as today with $1,42.9 for diesel the fuel that used to be so much cheaper. The Feds today are collecting insanity amounts per month from this madness. On CBC the other day it was shown in England for every $2.00 per litter $1.50 goes to the British Government; sourly you don't think that the snow white bone heads in Ottawa are not collecting the same amounts while me and you are paying the unfair rate per litter?

Well you type like a truck driver. Learn to spell for crying out loud. And just because the oil executives are grabbing big salaries, they are NOT the ones who set oil prices. Neither are the Conservatives. You obviously are oblivious to the facts , so take your grumbling someplace else.
Look between the Futures traders, OPEC, the Oil Companies, the oil executives and the Feds,
all these five pricks are reaping hard working peoples pockets including my own. So, I don't need you telling me I don't know what is going on when in fact it is plain and simple these ****ers are sticking it to us and your philosophy is to get on my thread and knock me be cause I don't sound like a con, but to you I sound like a truck driver. You are telling me to learn how to spell. I never came here telling anyone that I am a grammatical professor neither is this thread a contest on who can spell and can sound intelligent. Here the bone of contention is about insanity fuel prices which affect many ordinary peoples liefs, while a group of ffffffff elete are thumbing their noses at the rest of us. Capiss?. I take the name calling I spouted towards you back.
