There hasn't been a refinery built in the U.S. in the last 20 years because of all the environmental concerns. Also, I heard an interview this morning with the head of the section of the Tennessee government who deals with fuel, gas, oil, etc. He said that prices are dictated not by what the stations paid for the gas in the tank they are using, but the price of gas it will take to refill that tank. So you are paying in advance for gas that will fill up the underground tanks next week.
