I know what I am asking, and I’m asking everyone.

What is being done RIGHT NOW to enable dramatic increase in the manufacture of gasoline?

The domestic production of gasoline continues to expand through expansion and upgrades of existing refineries.

Let me turn that around and ask you what you think should be done given that

a) Saudi Arabia, OPEC, and all other major oil producing countries have no surplus and no prospect of a surplus in the near future. You can take Yergin's side against Simmons, and contend that the best evidence is not very good but - for the sake of this argument - agree with this limitation.

b) Environmental restrictions are in place for excellent reasons. Again you can dispute that they are unreasonable - despite consensus expert judgement that they are not - but, for the sake of this argument - agree with this limitation.
