Anyone have the stats on which oil companies are best to buy from?

[TheCowsCameHome]

I've seen it here before, but can't put my finger on it. I believe Citgo was one of the better ones to do business with.

Thanks for any help, and apologies for bringing up an old question.

1. i buy my gas from citgo or sunoco.

citgo, of course, is venezuelan and sunoco gets most of its oil from canada. check buyblue.org. they may have something.

google it.

2. Any Suggestions for Us West-Coasters?

Citgo is very rare in Northern California, and Sunoco is non-existant.

Perhaps it's time for Citgo to do some expansion in the Western blue states!

6. I know

I've been going to Costco for my gas, I don't use much though. They all suck anyways!

5. Hess and Citgo are good. Not sure Sunoco is a good choice

Sunoco, Inc.

$29,427 to Democrats
$115,903 to Republicans
$0 to Others
$145,329 in Total Contributions

8. as i said, i buy sunoco because they do not get their oil

from the middle east. you will notice that all of the oil companies contribute to the r's, in varying degrees. citgo, sunoco and hess stations are fewer and farther between than the bigger guys.

3. Buy ALL your gas from ONLY Hess and Citgo

9. Citgo/7-11

A lot of 7-11 stores sell Citgo gas - a Venezuelan state owned company. President Hugo Chavez (aproval rating in the 80% range) seems to be funneling much of the profits to the poor and to help neighboring countries refinance the crushing US controlled debt that has kept them under the US corporate thumb. They have been buying arms of late, as the word is they are sitting on oil fields that dwarf those in the middle east - hence the campaign by the oil men in the US to make him seem like an evildoer. A familiar pattern.
