As far as oil is concerned... Rush has a great ideal from another article titled Bottled Water Industry Gouging.

But it'll never see the light of day, and we couldn't afford this lesson, even if the oil companies decided to teach us this valuable lesson.

"We're going to limit these 47 different formulations of gasoline to accommodate the various regulations in the states for pollution purposes."

These gasoline regulations are the EPA on Steroids! Only one formula is needed and that is to keep the sulfa content under control - ever think of filling your tank in one state and driving into another state with entirely different gas formulations - commingling with other gas as you add gas to what is already in the tank perhaps unwittingly creating some nocuous pollutant and drive on to another state with other regulations where we add more formulations for that state - are we breaking the law somehow? No, we have just allowed a stupid law to manipulate the taxpayer into paying higher taxes…some of these additives have poisoned the land where highways cross it, yet the Congress is slow to stop the practice…follow the money. One formula for clean air would lower the costs for fuel and enable the refinery to produce far more fuel --- that is not to say we will not need to build more refineries, we desperately need more however, the practice of “blending fuels” must be ended.
