We could Double our Oil Production!

We created the oil shortage. When we think and worry about prices going up in the future they start to go up. The United States has more then 47 blends of gasoline because of the way people asses their environments. They feel they need a certain blend of gasoline to adapt to the environment correctly. If we were to just have one blend of gasoline in the United States the oil refiners would be producing double the fuel. Prices will plummet at the pumps if only we could reduce the amount of blends. So what’s the problem? Politicians need to sit down and come up with the right laws to regulate the blends of gas. Even if we just reduced the amount of blends at least we would get some little break at the pump. It is pretty much our fault that the prices are high because there are easy ways to help reduce prices. It could also help our economy to. If we are putting less money into producing all these different types of fuel, then we would have more money for other important issues. I mean honestly, does it matter what kind of fuel is being used at what elevation level, type of terrain or environment? It seems a little absurd. What do you all think? Is it just so obvious that we can actually conserve oil that people are over looking it?

That's a really good idea. I've never thought of that before. Good job!
