It's really not about not having enough oil. We have plenty, and we can get plenty. The problem is that Wall Street figures the price and the oil companies control the flow. If the nation were to have the same gas everywhere, that would cut costs but we don't. Different states put different standards on what and how the gas is refined. Then different counties in the states put even more standards on it, therefore making the refining process even more costly. If the oil companies really wanted to build more refineries, they would. But that is not good business.
