Here is an article about some of the reasons why congress won't lift the BAN on New Refineries and Drilling off our coasts.
http://money.cnn.com/2007/04/17/news...ries/index.htm

Meanwhile the last refinery was built in 1976, and these are the most inefficient and most polluting in the world. Counties like france and Kuwait have the best and most efficient ones in the world. Since 1976 america has lost over 100 refineries most during the 90's. in 1992 50 were closed and 1995 20 more were shut down. But no new ones were built so we have the capability to create Fuel at less levels than we did in 1976. Does this make since?
