FactCheck.org : U.S. Oil Refining Capability
I've worked in oil refineries. An oil refinery has to keep things flowing whether they have a lot of demand or not. Nearly all existing refineries can build to increase production, if it was needed. You can buy an oil refinery much cheaper than you can build one and many large ones have been shut down lately, like two in the Phily area, such as Sunoco and Conoco.

What does idled and closed mean?
You can get a history of refinery utilization from the EIA and I follow it for the stock market.
Worry about spreading your own lies by what you choose to post!
