The oil industry is hardly free to operate as efficiently as it could or to be as responsive to consumer demands as it would like.

And, there's not one year in the last 50 where the zero-income-tax-rate states have not outperformed the highest-income-tax-rate states.

Multi-millionaires who pay half or less than half of the percentage of tax the rest of us pay justify their actions by saying they pay what the law requires.
