It's all about money. Environmental regulation costs, citizen lawsuits,
cost to just build. Meanwhile, they make money on tight supplies, and
the industry now is very happy. With the concentration in this industry
among a few big players, no one is motivated to make the first move,
which will put them at a competitive disadvantage, I guess. Make sense?
