Idiots. I guess they didn't bother to notice that the ROI for the oil companies was right around 8%, which is commensurate with the ROIs of most companies, regardless of industry.


But why ruin good old-fashioned oil company bashing, right?

Beat me to it. I may take a few LEAPS on crude, but I no longer own stock.
The return is too small.

As far as corporate bashing, just who do they think a corporation is, anyway?

Its you and me and every other stockholder who puts his or her hard earned money in stocks & corporate bonds, and uses them in retirement accounts, investments in schooling for their children, and for their own financial security.

Pretty d*mn evil, aren't we?
