Heard 2 interesting things on the radio today. The govt is suspending the additive requirement for now, so this is no longer an excuse.

And Lurch, youre right, the supply side is fine.
Does anyone realize that ZERO new REFINERIES have been built it this country in the last 20 years(edited, someone just corrected me its 30 years as of this May ), and there are ZERO PLANS on building new refineries in the near future. Doesnt make much sense does it?? If you were any other business ,making any other product, and you could not keep up with demand, would you not build another FACTORY or increase capacity somehow, not the oil companies. Gee I wonder WHY ???
They even have the COHONES to tell the public that they are currently running at 110% of capacity & will INCREASE the capacity even further. How do they perform this magic trick ? or do they just think we will fall for such as stupid cliche? They are talking to you and I as if we had a 5th grade education, just like a Burger King TV commercial.
