Yet you ignore the fact that the energy companies, especially oil, raked in record profits last year. They just used Ukraine as a scapegoat to line their pockets. Unfortunately, this is a direct result of unfettered capitalism. But the people who support those who vote to keep capitalism unrestrained, refuse to see that they got what they voted for.

Blame the corporations recording record profits. Then blame those who vote to ensure that corporations can get away with it over and over again. I’ll wait.

We absolutely should've had price controls on food and energy like Nixon did in the 1970s, at a bare minimum. Really though, the oil companies should all be nationalized. But hey, that's my ideal world. We have a president who makes Nixon look like a socialist now. What can you do?
