So why couldn't they build in Mexico? Environmental laws are much more lax, the distribution capability is not that much different than from Texas. And again, the oil companies have been on a refining rationalization program for years as they, yes they, anticipate a switch to non fossil fuels or fossil fuel alternatives.

I have dealt with Exxon/Mobil and Chevron/Phillips over the past few years in their petrochemical derivitive businesses. There own sales people are telling me this. And yes, part of the strategy is to blame enviros while they shift their business models.

The Mexican GOVERNMENT owns ( or at least they used to and if this has changed, in any way, OUR companies certainly aren't allowed to drill and refine on Mexico! ) ALL of the Mexican oil companies and YOU want United States of America companies to just waltz into Mexico and take over THEIR oil and refinery system?

I don't believe a word you've written. Sorry...you're just off the wall on all of this.
