Speaking of record profits by the oil companies, I researched this
recently and found out that it now costs the oil companies about
$1.50 to make, market and sell a gallon of gas. Add the US tax to
that and total equals ~$2.25, total. the rest is pure ,er, gravy...

I don't think they are making .75 cents per gallon. There are different formulas that different counties have to have per EPA and they are more expensive and then you have delivery and retailers cut and I think states even have their own tax. I heard later today it's more like 11 cents a gallon to the oil companies.
