By all means, Hillary, let’s start investigating.

First, I would investigate why Bill Clinton locked up all the clean-burning coal into a federal preserve of hundred of thousands of acres in Utah and other western states to pay back the Riadi clan of Indonesia, which holds competing coal interests in the world market, for their generous “contributions” to his campaigns and Library.

Then, I would see how a relatively few thousand enviro-nazis were able to freeze our exploration for oil on government land since the Clinton administration, oil that would be on the market now. That oil belongs to all of us, not to the Sierra Club, or Bill Nelson and Mel Martinez, or the multi-millionaire women representing CA. We are entitled to use it.

Last, I would investigate the refineries in the USA that typically run at only 87% efficiency in any given month. The oil companies always import and process less than the nation’s consumers are using, so the phony “shortage” continues, and the commodities speculators can run up the price to ridiculous heights.

I think you mean "capacity", not efficiency.

And at what % should they be running?

“Bill Clinton locked up all the clean-burning coal into a federal preserve”
Is there any way to reverse that decision?
