ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Getty Oil

Getty Oil was a big company that made lots of money by finding and selling oil. They used big machines and tools to look deep into the ground and find oil. When they found it, they dug a hole in the ground and put a pipe in it. Then, they pumped the oil up through the pipe into big tanks.

Getty Oil used the money they made from selling oil to do lots of different things. They built big buildings and made lots of jobs so that people could work and make money too. They also helped out in their communities by giving money to schools, hospitals, and other good causes.

But sometimes, people didn't always do the right thing at Getty Oil. Some of the people who worked there might have done things that were not honest or fair. This is not a good thing because it hurts other people and can make them sad and upset.

So, people who cared about doing what was right made sure that Getty Oil followed the rules and did things the right way. This helps to make sure that everyone is treated fairly and that no one gets hurt.
