And congress just granted the oil industry a huge tax break.
    Actually that tax break was granted before they posted the profits I believe. Last I heard is that congress is not going to be as giving the next go around.

    I know. I should have worded it better. I meant that those two items coupled together have made it a great year for the oil industry and a bad year for us consumers, and yet there is no complaints. My wife and I have to pay it regardless (gotta work you know) but it has had an effect on spending elsewhere.
