nominative determinism but for companies?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Persian_Oil_Company
I don't think it's nominative determinism when the entity's name is determined by an attribute of the entity.
Good for California's budget as well.
Is this due to CA's high gas tax? That is a fixed value per gallon, so higher gas prices will not affect this right?
And all the oil companies - CRC and Chevron are huge.
