Something that will be at least mentioned to you in Economics 101, and in your first day on any sales job, is that it is not immoral to make a profit. Exxon-Mobil and all of the other oil companies have sunk plenty of money in dry wells and made very ordinary money, or lost some, over a lot of years. Anyone who really believes that XOM and other oil producers, refiners, and service companies are making obscene profits is welcome to buy their securities. Whats wrong, no guts?
