If you were alive in 1973 to 1985, you would have heard the solution to no gas, gas lines at filling stations, and high gas prices.
Ask yourselves these questions.
Does supply and demand mean if you want a lower cost for a product, do you make MORE of it or less?
How do hurricanes impact the price of gasoline in the USA? Why?
How many refineries are there in the USA? You cheated. You clicked the link. 129 is the answer.
When was the last one built? 2021 in Texas
How many were there in 2016? 141
Why do gas prices go up when a hurricane hits Texas? Could it be there are a lot of refineries in the Gulf of Mexico area?
If you want lower prices, make more stuff. Build more refineries. Use the oil we have, wisely.
The USA has not learned the lessons of forty years ago well.
