The story is about biodiesel!!!

This allows the importer to qualify for tax credits intended to promote the production and use of U.S. biodiesel.
It is estimated that the practice cost the U.S. Treasury $30 million in the last year, but critics say the price will grow as the practice is becoming more common.

In a lot of developing countries, like Venezuela, govt subsidies are absorbing the rising fuel costs and keeping them off the backs of consumers. In developed countries, like ours, UK, France, etc, not so much.

Each spring, just before the summer driving season, gasoline prices skyrocket. And every year, these four words appear in news reports nationwide as a big reason for the runup: "lack of refining capacity."

Then experts call for more refineries, politicians pledge to make the dirty behemoths easier to build, but guess what? Nothing really happens. Next year, repeat story.
So why hasn't a new refinery been built in the U.S. since 1976?
"There have been calls every year this decade for new refining capacity, yet no new projects initiated," said Geoff Sundstrom, a spokesman for AAA, the motorist organization. "Refining capacity has not kept pace with demand for gasoline."
