Rejection Letter to Exxon/Mobile

Dear Mr. Tillerson, CEO Exxon/Mobile:

I am in receipt of your pre-approved credit card offer and emphatically reject it. Exxon/Mobile is no longer approved to do business with me.

Exxon/Mobile is no longer approved to do business with me because after increasing prices at the pump so high that consumers can't afford it, you then have the unmitigated gall to offer me, and countless others I'm sure, a credit card with a 21.00% interest rate so we can continue to buy your product. I think we are already paying enough for your product without adding another 21.00%.

Exxon/Mobile is no longer approved to do business with me because it amassed record net profits of $40 billion in 2007, while the American consumer has to choose between feeding their family and putting gas in their tank. This past April, Congress called upon you, along with four other oil companies, to answer for the combined $123 billion in net profit made by your five companies while the consumer struggles to survive. The defense that these windfall profits are needed to see you through the lean years is nothing short of an abomination and an insult to Americans. When, exactly, was Exxon's last lean year?

You, personally, have lost the opportunity to do business with me because you were compensated $21.7 million in 2007 while the American farmer struggles to pay for gas. Those farmers grow the food that is on your dinner table Mr. Tillerson and you should be ashamed making that much money off their backs. With all that money in your personal pockets, I'm sure you don't have to choose between groceries and gas, or worry about losing the family farm. And should you ever leave Exxon, I will not do business with any company that employs you.

Exxon/Mobile is no longer approved to do business with me because you continue to take advantage of the consumer's dependence on gas while U.S. workers are being laid off in the hundreds of thousands and foreclosures are at record breaking numbers. Because you literally have the American consumer "over a barrel" and obviously have no qualm in using that position to further your quest for more and more profit.
