They love it when hurricanes and storms give them an “excuse” to close down refineries....

Yep, they love having to shut down the the source of their income. They love having to spend money to repair storm damage and inspect equipment. Ever work in a refinery? It put food on the table of many a relative of mine. How would like to work around volatile chemicals in 140 mile per hour winds? No? Well, neither do the refinery workers. Little things like preventing explosions cause them to shut down. If you think gas prices are high now, then see what it is like when a refinery is blown to bits.

Can you imagine the deaths if people was still working at a refinery during a hurricane?? Aside from drilling we need to have more refineries built...
