ExxonMobil DOUBLES its profits and intends to triple its buybacks while Chevron more than TRIPLES its profits, raking in it highest returns since 2012

Said it before ... sayin' it again ... Big oil is ripping off consumers and profiteering off of the Ukrainian war.
You just don't start to drill and out of the ground pops oil. Many oil drilling companies in 2020 folded due to the pandemic when oil was a $40 a barrel
Profits are up compared to last year, when we were still in a lock down?

Who would have thought such a thing was possible?
