If you dont’ think we need more refineries then you are part of the problem not the solution. More drilling, more oil extraction and more refineries(in the USA). Anything else is pure socialist BS.
There’s your refinery if you want it. If you don’t want it then your claim is empty.
Actually, part of the price of food increases is the increase of gas and diesel, mainly diesel. The more it cost to haul it, the more it cost the consumer. Liberals are to dumb to grasp that fact.
Your reply doesn’t make sense. Please clarify.
If you want to tour the facility I will arrange that through Jeff or Gene. Flint Hills needs to either reconfigure or sell the facility. They need to do something by the end of the year since the profit margin is not adequate in the present configuration.
Let me ask you this: If they have a refinery and can’t make money then what are they doing wrong? Fuel is a highly competitive business, if they can’t make it why don’t they just shut down? More refineries, more oil, more domestic exploration, more drilling, etc. If you don’t believe that you are brain dead. Period.
They don't own the oil well. Still, it is possible to make some money with a refinery and they need to reconfigure and expand or sell and the next owner will have to do that.
