Think, Question, Challenge

If you don't want to be made to think, if you don't like to question societal norms, if you don't want to be challenged, then Derek Webb isn't for you.

How is it possible for the Oil Industry to "Offer[s] No Apologies For Record Profits"? How is the fact that their profit margin is less than that of Internet companies even relevant? How many federal subsidies does Yahoo or Google get?
