How can there be a

How many refineries have been built in your county in the past thirty
years? None, right?
The refineries aren't where the demand is. Indeed, some of the
refineries are in Europe, especially in Holland. Whereas Europe used
to send us gasoline, now they need it themselves.
Other refineries are in the Caribbean. Did you factor those into your
"flat" deliveries?
U.S.-based refineries are only a part of the picture.
