spit next time....

I've heard that while we're getting some oil from other countries and some oil derricks are getting back online, the price drop, if any, will be shortlived.

i would give anything to have bush come on tv and just say fuck it we're drilling alaska and those hippie tree huggers can deal with it this is a crisis and im going to control it. we will also not be buying any foreign oil until prices become what i believe to be fair. until then all foreign oil will cease to be in these united states. thank you and good night.

The reason why gas is high isn't because of the lack of oil, it's the lack of refinery's. There has not been a new refinery in 30+ years. In those 30 years the crude oil supply has increased, and the demand for gas/refined oil has gone WAY up...but not one drop more crude oil is being refined into gas. We could drill all we want, all it'd do is provide us lots and lots of crude oil that we can't use.....we need new refineries.

Tiger is right. It's more the refineries than anything. The price of a barrel is the only visible marker for people to see; and the excuse the gas companies point to when an increase occurs.

It is sad though about the lack of refineries; and the fact new ones haven't been built in 30 years. With all the improvements in chemical processing, I'd love to see what a new refinery would be capable of acheiving in terms of efficiency.
