As I understand it they are involved in a portion of the other options but in no way do they "own" those other options. Just looking at electricity generation, yes the petroleum industry does natural gas too, but I don't believe they have much, if any, involvement in coal, nuclear or hydroelectric. While natural gas is continually gaining ground coal still accounts for almost half the electricity generated in this country. Either way it is better for the petroleum industry if we continue to use oil, an industry they (by definition) own 100%.

I'm still boggled at how people (at least anyone above the Mason dixon line on the east coast) can smoke...The cheapest pack of Ciggs in NJ that I've seen is damn near 6 dollars. And people literally pay me in Pennies and dimes at times just to get that pack of smokes.
Lord knows how High gas prices, Increasing costs of Food and Cost of living is going to "Help" our already struggling economy.
