Imagine, for a minute, an oil company coming into your town to pump out all the black gold from an oil well that was recently discovered. They come with their cranes and drills and build a big refinery. You know it can’t possibly be good, no matter how much you’re assured by local officials and the oil company’s execs, who promise that the profits made from the oil will benefit the town in more ways than one; but you’re too busy trying to survive to do much about it. So you hope they’re being honest.
