USA should be increasing the refining capability to handle light sweet instead of shipping it overseas.

We already refine more than we use. We export those excess products.

But building new refineries takes years and is blocked at every step required.

Dude you are lying. We only have enough domestic oil to meet a little over 50% of our own demand. This is stupid short term thinking.

You don’t need NEW refineries just increase current capacities.
