(H/T – Chris)
JSOnline’s Daywatch is reporting that Gov. Jim “Craps” Doyle (WEAC/Potawatomi-For Sale) will be appearing at a Brookfield gas station at 10 am this morning to announce a plan to limit oil company profits. Please tell me that it will be at one of Brookfield’s 4 Mobil stations; it would be fun to note that the state of Wisconsin mandates essentially the same profit margin (9.18% above that day’s average terminal price, unless that is less than 6% above what the station paid for it) for the station than ExxonMobil received last year (depending on the source, anywhere between 9 and 10%). Ah heck, I just noted it anyway. I just want the photo to go with it.
Brian Fraley points out that this goes against the May Day pro-illegal-invader boycott of commerce. Some days, Craps just can’t win. Hopefully, another one of those days will be November 7.
Revisions/extensions; multiple sources have differing profit margin numbers for ExxonMobil.
