Exxon upping the amps - profits

(Kaieteur News) – It is fascinating to watch Exxon on the move. Its people taking the floor, speaking with power and supreme confidence. What’s good news for Exxon’s investors is bad news for Guyanese. Follow Exxon’s sequence.

It moved quickly. Burst the halo and bubble surrounding Guyanese. Squelched excitements and expectations. Laid out the company’s priorities. Guyana has to get with Exxon’s program. Like hell, I say. The Guyana Government should tell Exxon to get going. Out of here immediately. Every Guyanese knows that’s not going to happen. Chicken-foot leaders. Lily-livered PPP Govt. Passive population. I go in the opposite direction.
