Papantonio: Obama Is An Oil President, Period. [View all]
If you were to take 90 countries around the world (according to their GDP ranking) and compare the entire economies of those countries against the economy of Exxon, you’d find that Exxon would be more economically powerful than all of those 90 countries. Where do sales analysis of $30 billion a year leave a company like Exxon, Shell, or BP? The simple answer is: it leaves them with complete control of our lives.
What does that kind of money buy? It buys presidents and the entire military industrial complex, all so big oil can become bigger oil.
