Back to my Excel spreadsheets.

They haven't built new refineries because everyone said "Not in my back yard!" when we had a chance to expand production. Everyone seems to be in agreement when it comes to expanding the capabilities of the refineries but they don't want to see them anywhere near their home.

Which is exactly why most oil production (drilling and refining) is now down in foreign countries. NIMBY has gotten such a foothold that it is NIMC (Not In My Country). Let's let the middle east have all of that pollution. Of course, we pay for it...

I like the idea of using some of the military bases that have been closed down as locations for new refineries. Some of them are not that close to people.

Heck of a good idea.


Or all those old Kmart/Walmart stores that are left abandoned. Fill those up too.

Default Re: Oil prices
That is an excellent point, but are the facilities in place like enough electric, water etc? Then we get into if a pipeline needs to be installed to get the oil there? Most of the abandoned military installations are not next to rivers where the oil is barged in. It may not be cost feasable to do it.
