Absolutely freaking hilarious. Apparently, the survey folks worked pretty hard to try not to find anyone.

Meanwhile, back to reality:

Exxon Mobil announces $35 billion in new US investments over 5 years, citing tax reform

Exxon Mobil, the world's largest publicly traded oil company, on Monday said it plans to invest an additional $35 billion in the United States over the next five years.

As part of the investment, Exxon plans to increase production in the Permian basin, a shale oil region in western Texas and eastern New Mexico where the low cost of production has attracted drillers. Exxon said it will expand its operations, make improvements to infrastructure and construct manufacturing sites, activities that it expects will generate thousands of new jobs.


"These are all possible because of the resource base developed by our industry along with sound tax and regulatory policies that create a pro-growth business climate here in the U.S."

BAM!
