O.K, they were making a lot less money. The question still stands. Why didn't they manipulate the market back then to achieve much larger profits?

decades of brainwashing in our schoolsystems has led to a lack of understanding, on how the real world works.
I am just waiting for somebody to say it..."Tose mean corporations shouldn't be allowed to make that much profit....the goverment should do something about that" blah...blah..blah.

A century of failed communist and socialistic ideas, hasn't taught us anything. I blame the our educational system for that.
Teachers and professors living in a world constructed and exisitng only in their heads, should not be given the privillege to teach children.

I have never thought they were manipulating the market- I am just stating facts.

Exxon is a publicly traded company. Buy some stock in Exxon and you will "see" some "trickle down". Jeez.
You have absolutely no clue of what you're really writing about. But that's okay, please continue. :cool: Not many fall for distorted truths, lies and repeated repetition to be believed as facts. You need to call Jim Cramer now, not C-Span.

Oligopoly is not a free market. In fact, it's illegal inside the USA. I'm sure a few methane horse farts can get you to your place of employment on 4 wheels.
