And did you build the roads and rail system the gas was transported on? Could you have turned a profit without the MASSIVE oil and gas subsidies we've had in place for over a 100 years that built all the refineries and infrastructure that allowed the product you sold to exist at a profitable price? Did you employ private security to make sure your station wasn't robbed or did the socialist police and fire departments protect your business? Who educated your employees? Who insured the bank you used? Did you incorporate? If so, society allowed you to separate your personal assets from the business in case your business failed. Society literally gave you the ability to take on the risk of owning a business and absorbs the cost of those that fail. I could spend the rest of the day listing all the things that you didn't do that allowed you to succeed. Government and society made everything about your business possible, but sure, you did it ALL BY YOURSELF. Never mind the hundreds of millions in taxes spent every year in our country that allows businesses to operate efficiently, have access to courts, open sea lanes, education, police, fire, banking oversight, etc, etc, etc..........................it was all boot strappy Jim that did it.
