Weak dollar is driving the prices up among a few other things such as speculators, although they are working in reverse right now. How about credit card companies profit?

The credit card industry is the most profitable one in the United States with annual earnings in the $30 billion range.

No one ever talks about their outrageous profits, should they be capped too?
Wal-mart earned more than they expected too, are they next to be on the "evil block" of companies? Who is after that? US government for making profit on the arms trade? Businesses make money, people need to get over that. If they were breaking the law that would be another thing, but they are not. Just blame yourself for not buying their stock in time.
With all this record profit talk, you haven't offered a solution. Go ahead.
