No, that would be _correct_ logic. If the margin for building a refinery were that low, then _you should build something else_. The reason capitalism is A Good Thing is because it forces economies to operate efficiently. Spending money on low-return projects when higher return projects are available is inefficient. It is impossible to predict what the price of oil will be in 20 years, so of course you don't build refineries that might or might not be useful 20 years from now. That would be a useless waste of resources. Gautam Mukunda [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Freedom is not free" http://www.mukunda.blogspot.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
