Answer 1

When a commodity like oil (big money) hooks to the govt cart, you get favors and back room deals. Oil brings in big money. Govt will be anyones Bi.t.c.h for the cash. Thats why oil companies set rotating price structures.

Answer 2

Answer 3

where are you getting your info from - no one makes 60% interest on anything - you're lucky if you can get 3% anymore and it's impossible to make more than 100% profit - and the only way you do that is if your costs are zero and that's impossible in the real world. Sales -costs = profit.  profit % = profit/sales.  if sales is $100.00 and costs are 0.00, then profit is $100.00 - 100.00/100.00 = 100.0%.  that's the most profit you can theoretically make on anything, but there are always costs
