$42.5 BILLION!!!!!!

Filed under: Business Blitz

That is the record amount that Exxon Mobile is reporting they made in profit for 2008.

At least they shouldn't be announcing any layoffs soon!

    10. 10

      Sounds great, but it doesn't work that way. Those "profits" translate to pennies to the huge number of shareholders.



    11. 11

      Re: meltz9111 – maybe pennies. maybe millions of millions of pennies. maybe billions of pennies. but ONLY pennies.

      It is ExxonMobil? Or is there a new cellphone provider called Exxon Mobile that I don't know about?

      OOOH, that infuriates me! We were suffering this summer, and they're making out like bandits! They need to donate that money to people who lost their homes and their JOBS!



    15. 15

      Does George W. Bush get a commission off that?



    16. 16

      Yea Exxon!! At least someone doesn't need money from the government to keep their business alive!



    17. 17

      NAUSEATING and somewhat ILLEGAL? In SOME WAY?



    18. 18

      their profit is the reason everybody else is poor and having to layoff ppl…



    19. 19

      To all of the people who are complaining about this profit….FUCK YOU….It is because the idiots on Wall St ran oil up to 140$ a barrell….during this the Arabs said there was no reason for it to be so high…..If you want to bitch complain to the Jews who run the Street and fucked oil up like they fucked banks and real estate….oh and hollywood….If you don't believe me start paying attention to the last names of the people involved



    20. 20

      it think they should give back our money !! or charge 30 billion less at the pumps this year!!



    21. 21

      Republicans love corporations
      Democrats love people!



    22. 22

      Yeah for them….

      RIDICULOUS.

      Re: Jessica Grady – [b] get a life. lmao



    25. 25

      Yet they still won't dollar towards cleaning the astronomical damage and they caused in the Pacific Ocean 19 years ago. Not even a penny to help save the Sea Life still dying. Nothing; even though it was Exxon's inebriated captain that ran the Exxon Valdez into the ground. 42billion this year in profits………how many more billions in profit has Exxon made each year, since they caused this ecological disaster????????? Canada asked for a measly 5 billion towards repairing this mess. Exxon thinks it's funny and has made it verbally known, They Won't Pay a Penny Ever. These greedy Corporations should be sentenced to live in whatever crap they leave for others. Why isn't it considered criminal. Pathetically they r desperate for money and prestige, CEO's just consider it collateral damage while filling their pockets and ego's.



    26. 26

      Well of course they made records amounts of money. Gas has been more expensive than ever before. Their profit margin is ridiculous anyway.



    27. 27

      MOTHER FUCKERS!!!!



    28. 28

      And we haven't mobbed them yet because…?

      Re: The Warden – Thanks for the clarity. I'm seeking a little more if I may. I've always been curious as to why an obvious intellectual giant such as yourself finds himself here in the pink room so often.
      One would picture you going to battle on a virtual chess site or waxing lyrical in a greek tragedy room perhaps. But Perez Hilton??? It seems a strange fit for you. (o:

      Re: The Warden – OMG, you take the time to explain this situation and then call stupid whoever takes the time to read it?……..



    32. 32

      At least SOMEBODY made money last year. All of you whiners didn't have money in Exxon I'm sure.



    33. 33

      Re: topper – Your avies keep getting better! :)



    34. 34

      YEs and obviously they gouged us at the pumps on '08…..$5.00/gal. gas was BS.



    35. 35

      First, it's Exxon Mobil, Perez. Exxon Mobile……what an idiot.
      Second, they pay more in taxes than the bottom 50% of taxpayers.
      Third, all this talk about taking their money is ignorant. Someday they could just HQ in Dubai, like Halliburton. Bye bye government money to all you underachieving free-loaders.



    36. 36

      pay up bitches



    37. 37

      bush and cheney were oil men. exxon paid for the bush mansion.
      too bad the gov't still pays them subsidies. alternative fuel asap.



    38. 38

      well im going to look for a job there



    39. 39

      Thats the problem with the economy. These damn CEO's get 2 billion dollar bonuses every quarter for sitting at a desk and effing with the rest of America. Where's Robin Hood when you need him?!



    40. 40

      Fuckers KNEW we were headed into a recession, yet they did NOTHING to put the breaks to it….but MILK…..MILK…… MILKED us like old milk cows….now WE have to bail the rest of the whores out of their mess

      FUCK THAT!!!

      I guess they can bail out the car companies…

      Re: LG sez Drug Test Palin NOW! – 13 NO DOUBT AT ALL!!



    44. 44

      People loathe the idea of redistribution of wealth when it's money coming from the rich to help the poorer but in reality, redistribution happens all of the time, except that it gets redistributed UPward. Case in point, Exxon. Think of all of the people who are unable to heat their homes this year or even afford food due to Exxon's profit.



    45. 45

      Re: The Warden – Was that commercial paid for by Exxon?



    46. 46

      Woot! thank goodness my hubby works for them $$$$$$$$$$$$$



    47. 47

      GOOD FOR THEM.
      NOW THEY CAN BAIL OUT THE AUTO INDUSTRY SINCE AUTOS ARE THE REASON THEY MADE 42 BILLION DOLLARS OFF OF OUR BACKS IN AMERICA.
      GREEDY FUKKIN KOCK SUCKERS.
      THEY REALLY NEED TO GIVE BACK TO THE COUNTRY.

      When a company makes that much profit you know something is not right - like now I get why the cost of gas is so much - hope they all got a nice bonus.
