DJ you're right!! Its nobahma, both bushes, clinton, all of them. Presidents Day. what better homage could the oil companys make, than to raise the prices in thier honor. Theres nothing I'd like more than the federal gov. build and run a few refinerys.NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN. Refining crude is the end result of oil production.Businesses would scream un fair. The lobbyists and lawyers would have the action taken to courts and it would drag on for a century.And if the gov. won, they'd screw it up just like they do everything.Local people in many places dont want refinerys, the polution, the infa structure would turn out to be a burden to the tax payers. In lake county IN. at one time therew were 6 refinerys, now one. The public had nothing to do with shutting them down.
