Buying up futures with a limited supply drives up the price per barrel.

That's true but I'm not buying futures. Another thing, I'll be damned if I am going to defend the fact that I did my homework economy wise and now am making some very nice money from it. If someone doesn't like somebody profiting from the rise in oil prices they're in the wrong country.
