In response to the original post, the oil companies are doing what
they are supposed to do; maximize value to their shareholders, which
you could become if you care to.


I could become a pornographer, pimp or mercenary, too.

Ethics.


Whatever became of those guys who swore they had observe a fusion
reaction in a laboratory bottle about 20 years ago?


Scientific ridicule, but just think if the US had spend $500 billion on cold
fusion research instead of chasing WMDs around Iraq while our actual enemies
hide out in Afghanistan. Might be half a trillion dollars closer to giving
OPEC the star-spangled finger once and for all.
