As for building more refineries in the USA, the oil companies have not built any new one because they cost too much to build AND they have an incentive to not increase production. Increasing production will not increase their Profits when the world is running out of oil. And refineries have no effect what so ever on the price of OIL. OPEC has driven the price of OIL up by refusing to pump more oil. The OIL companies are driving the price of GAS up by refusing the build more refineries. Those people are not going to do anything to reduce their profits.

Don't blame me for this problem. Blame those that keep lying to people in order to keep us under the BIG OIL companies grasp.

Crude Oil Prices are going up and even Glen Beck (GOP TV TALKING HEAD) says that oil is drying up and prices will never come back down. He thinks that in the future we will think of $4.00/gallon gas prices as the "GOOD OLD DAYS".
