State-run companies control much of the world’s oil reserves and regularly collude via OPEC. But they don’t ever get picked on. What if Saudi Aramco or PEMEX were held to the same level of accountability?

As one of those individual shareholders, I’ve been very happy with Exxon’s performance over the years. You can purchase Exxon stock directly via a DRIP, no broker needed!

jim Jubak wrote a nice article about Exxon Mobil, and it’s future, or lack of a future. It’s a small insight into a large oil company, and how it works.

Great article! But Ronald Regan was only partially correct in “dollar’s devaluation” when he said “It’s [inflation] caused by government spending more than it takes in, and it will go away just as soon as government stops doing that.” Actually, the Federal Reserve can cause inflation without deficit spending by the government. For those who would like to know more about that invention from hell called “central banking”, I highly recommend “The Mystery of Banking” by Murray Rothbard. It can be downloaded for free at:

Booms, busts, and the resulting cry for more government regulation are caused by the Federal Reserve and the banking cartel in this country.
