Exxon Just Made $15 Billion

Exxon’s quarterly profit was near a record. Chevron and BP also made huge profits. Now the debate is whether Exxon can keep it all. Some politicians call it a “windfall” from the Middle East, which should be taxed. That money would go toward green energy development. Exxon argues that it paid billions of dollars to find the oil and then paid the cost of drilling for it.
