...Insane or not ? She wants all of their profits to fund governmental energy research....We need energy research, no doubt, but why would any company want to be in business if they could not keep any of their profits ? What is Hillary thinking ? What do you think ?

What's insane is Exxon reporting $36.1 BILLION in profits for 2006.

Hillary would like Big Oil to stop raping the hell out of America. I have no problem with a politician siding with the citizens versus letting the common people get screwed just so his/her rich buddies can get richer.

The oil company PAID for the land to drill on. The Oil company PAID fo the ecological learn that took 10 or greater advantageous years so see if any drilling might disrupt the observed owl, between different creatures. The Oil company PAID for the group and playform and drill bits and infrastructure to extract the oil from the floor. while hurricane Karina hit New Orleans there have been 0 (0) oil leaks in the Gulf of Mexico. The Oil companies did each and all of the artwork to get the oil and placed across it to us. Then the government steps in and taxes it they generally tax it severe through reality all of us use it and while the super risky Oil firms without a doubt "earn" a earnings we are saying they're undesirable? however the completed govt had to do was once impose a "tax". Do no artwork, pay no person despite if get carry of a be beneficial each and all of the equivalent. who's the theif now? pondering while did capitalism become against the regulation interior u.s., land of the loose and place of living of the brave?

Do not make the mistake and sell her short. She is very intelligent, and I'm sure there is a back-up plan.
I really like what she said last week about every American should have affordable medical insurance. There are some people I know of that are working two jobs but cannot afford medical insurance. This is a disgrace. With the tax papers money that is spent on foolish ideas or the $12, Million that is unaccounted for, that was paid out in cash to private contractors in Iraq. Guess where most went to, Halliburton. I'm sure Cheny's stock went up & up. The American need this money! I see people everyday that cannot afford a dentist, they suffer.

What do I think? I think people should stop and think. Obviously the GOVERNMENT can't tax all oil company profits but the government should tax windfall profits. Wouldn't it be better to use these profits to finance research to benefit mankind or would it be better to make the rich richer...at the expense of the common man? You figure it out. This scenario has been bandied about by politicians long before Hillary began running for President.

She's thinking she can dupe more voters to her cause by punishing companies who are flourishing in our capitalistic, free market society. It's just one step closer to socialism. Honestly, this is starting to sound like Hugo Chavez's plan to nationalize the oil industry in Venezuela.

I don't think she's insane. Let's see, help millionaires become billionaires while gouging the average American, or taking that money and funding education, and decreasing America's dependence on outside oil/resources?
Then again, I am a "bleeding heart, wimpy Liberal."
