[QUOTE="the-lost-son, post: 262935, member: 672"] JR often quotes his Daddy‘s dreams that Ewing Oil one day should become the bigges „independent„ oil company in Texas. I never thought about it - but I don‘t get the term „independent“. Why not just the biggest oil company in Texas? Is it a reference to the „seven sisters“ in the American oil business and most companies being tied to them? I mean, if you run and own a company - it‘s independent, or not?. I assume there weren‘t many state-owned oil companies. I think, private independent companies should be the standard, especially in US economics. Can someone please enlighten me? [/QUOTE]
