It's regulated now. Ever see the deduction part of yours? Who do you think all those deductions go to? Next! :rtfm:

Hey Flaptail you can't be mad at George Bush and the tree hugging liberals at the same time. Bust derives income from the oil industry and the LEFT WINGNUT LIBERAL ELEMENT drives the public opinon against refinery expansion. We need more refineries to help get the prices down and the supply up, (what you said) such as drilling in the Alaskan tundra. I mean at least George Bush is in favor of refinery expansion. So Bush might actually be your new best friend if the prices plummet when he announces refinery expansion across the country.

Swimmy, yes I can! I am mad at Georgie for not doing enough to stem the crisis and at the liberals for promoting such strict regulations that the oil companies won't build new plants. Course I am mad at the oil companies for thinking profit line first rather than the increased production that could be seen from newer updated and expanded plants that would have to meet the EPA standards which would eventually pay back the investment and reap profits. Also I am mad at the president and congress and the senate for not pushing the auto industry into new technologies for fuel like Hydrogen etc. that they already know will be a huge development and stand too make the country more independent on foriegn oil and energy and satify every tree huggers dreams at the same time. And I mad at Detroit for not doing it themselves. Jeez, looks like I am mad at everybody! I need a rest this government stuff is straining my little brain! :poke: :hidin:

flap, is the man getting you down?? :hihi:

Flap, I'm mad at YOU :rude:
