Us Gasoline supply has been cut by a third. My point is let the people in
the US reduce their consumption by a third. Price stays down, no one else
gets f****d up. As has been said in the thread, this was a problem
waiting to happen, the politicians knew about it, the local authorities
new about it and business knew about it but they ignored it.


Right, but what you fail to realize is that this is a SELF-IMPOSED
disaster, by well-meaning Americans who thought that they were helping the
world by making it impossible for oil companies to build any new
refineries.

The hurricane was inevitable; the consequences were not.

I suspect, given what you're saying, that you probably agreed with their
environmental approach. You probably cheered as, one by one, more and
more restrictive U.S. laws were passed, making it harder and harder for
suppliers to refine crude oil into gasoline. Until now.

Now that their short-sightedness is hurting everyone, badly --
worldwide -- maybe you'll realize just how much harm environmental
extremists have done.
