It takes money to make more money (especially in any appreciable amount) and that is not possible for everyone so the "You can get in on it too" argumentation is quite insulting to a lot of people as far as I am concerned.
But they are. Your premise is wrong. This just headlined the Financial times 2 days ago[1]. This and the last quarter have been record profits for energy companies and that's not even counting local profits, which are also at record heights.

Gas is still trading worldwide at a price far below it's 6:1 energy value relative to oil, so IMO everyone needs to stuff this "record profits" line right back up their ass where they got it in the first place. There's not a gas shortage; gas is still overproduced and dirt cheap. We do however seem to be long on crybabies that can't buy it at 20:1 anymore.
Financially and politically punishing domestic producers in Europe and the West led to this problem in the first place where it's simply not possible to be price competitive with Russia and the Middle East where the labor, environmental and regulatory standards to produce it are weak or ignored. Nobody seems to give one shit about how much "profit" those suppliers make from the sales, consequences be damned, so long as they give the best price.
Unfortunately, people complain that the government needs to intervene fix a problem that governments were responsible for creating, while using Russia as a smokescreen for the terrible government policies that got us where we are in the first place.
