Obama Plan to End Oil Tax Breaks Taps Controversy

President Obama is earning both praise and criticism for suggesting in his State of the Union address that gas and oil companies are "doing just fine on their own" and don't need the tax Breaks they currently enjoy.
Oil industry experts suggest the president, by singling out oil companies, could be defeating two of his stated goals: creating jobs and boosting renewable energy research.
"The administration seems poised to stifle one of the best ways to create jobs," said Jack Gerard, president of the American Petroleum Institute, citing potential job in new petroleum exploration.
"We need policies that help the 9.2 million hardworking men and women in the industry, not hurt them," Gerard said.

That's not what the article says....nothing about $5 gas in there. If the oil companies want to do R&D, they can take advantage of the R&D tax credit like everyone else.

Hello SB, no that was me that took a guess at what MIGHT happen. To me it happen all of the time, usually if a companies price of doing busness rises they pass it on to the consumer. Right now the price is dropping and so is the Dollar, not the norm but the numbers don't lie.:)
