"Would you mind directing me to your reference material. re: "restrictions removed" & "they never intended to build new ones"...."

Congressman Barton himself told me that the energy bill removed numerous restrictions. As for "they never intended to build new ones", that is an assumption based on the age old question of "why would they?". They've made billions with out new ones so, why would they put more refined product on the market and cut into their PROFIT?

Because they would not build so much to cut into their own profits. However, they would make more money by displacing foreign owned refining that imports gasoline to the US.

Well okay that's a start....

Now...exactly what restrictions..specifically..did this Congressman Barton tell you were removed?

Oh I see...an assumption on your part. So..you really don't know that they never intended to build new ones....Okay...that makes sense now.

Thanks-
