From the New York Times
“Exxon Mobil, the world’s largest publicly traded oil company, reported on Thursday that second-quarter income rose 14 percent, to $11.68 billion, the highest-ever for an American company. … With this quarter’s result, Exxon topped its own record of $11.66 billion in the fourth quarter of last year.”
Obscene…

And they give themselves another multimillion dollar bonus. Oil executives are scum. And so are the politicians who enable them.
