      Lex Luz -- you are right on! I enjoyed your post completely.

      To stanr, I understand that Exxon paid enormous taxes and duties, but it's awfully convenient that they aren't required to pay the full $2.5B settlement to the people of Alaska for the Valdez oil spill nearly 20 years ago, but instead are obligated to only $500M. That's a $2B gift! *rolling eyes* The money that they did spend in clean up and mediocre settlements was a drop in the bucket to XOM, but a huge loss to the Alaskans, IF they are EVER compensated.

      XOM and Big Oil in general should be required to put 'x' amount (certainly more than $10M) into researching and producing alternative fuels. They will be able to recoup the profits when the alternative fuel starts being mass produced and the weaning from oil begins.

      On a Disastrous Jobs Number, Recession is Obvious
      I have had more requests lately for home business information than ever before. I know that my family is feeling the crunch of high gas and food prices (not to mention our electric bill!) but I'm shocked and saddened by those that have come to me wanting information because they have recently lost their jobs. People from all walks of life from teachers and administrative assistants, to department store workers and those just wanting to build a financial cushion.

      We are most definitely in a recession. How long will it last? That's the question we're afraid to ask.

      For some, a home business isn't the solution. For others, however, it can be a lifeline. Look for a reputable company accredited with BBB, offers a high quality product and has leaders that actually LEAD. Some home business scams just expect you to recruit people, post internet ads or create a pyramid, all without having a product line whatsoever. How long will those businesses last? Hmph.

      Be choosy and be cautious. If it smells like a skunk, it probably is a skunk.
