So, basically , it is all about the profit of your big subsidized oil conglomerate .... Cheaper to get it processed outside the USA ....

Anymore half-truth to spin ?
Read the very first sentence of your own quote. YOUR post said:

Quote:
In fact, oil companies in the U.S. perceive obtaining a permit to build a modern refinery to be so difficult and costly that no new refineries have been built
According to YOUR source, the problem is that it's so difficult and expensive to get a permit to build a modern refinery that none have been built since 1976.

Back off for a second from reading only the parts that support some political idealogy and actually read your own source. It makes you a much more intelligent and well rounded person. Just because you generally agree with Obama or whoever doesn't mean you have to close your eyes and ignore facts he'd rather you not see, even as you accidentally quote those facts. You can agree with him generally and still see that he's wrong on this issue.
