...and you're wrong about the reason too...

The simple fact is, it's the market economy at work...that's right, the force that we need to "turn loose to unleash prosperity". Funny thing...corporations kinda like gas prices where they are. Odd, since they're raking in record profits.... On top of that, why build a refinery at tremendous cost when you can modernize an older refinery for a third of it, increase production gradually and keep the price where it is? Further, because they are so expensive to build, new refineries have significant (20-50 year) recovery windows before they earn profit. As US consumption continues to decrease due to conversion to alternate fuel sources (natural gas etc...) and increases in efficiency, energy companies simply do not see that investment getting returned...but sure, we can blame it on the environmental lobby...
Don't take my word for it though...
