"Reasonable Profits Board" ....I seriously had to double check to make sure that this wasn't taken out of Atlas Shrugged For perspective, Exxon currently earns $0.02/gallon of gas and State governments "earn" $0.48/gallon of gas. So with their 100% windfall tax on anything above what the "reasonable profits board" approves of, oil companies would become little more government employees with the chance to earn larger than usual bonus for good performance.
