Exxon for the last Decade has made a NET PROFIT after every single expense has been paid Over One Hundred Million Dollars a Day, A Fucking DAY week after week, month after month, year after year, 365 days a year, and yet they still get subsidies and Tax Breaks from the Government......$58,000 a day is nothing but pocket change to them.
