I am forced to disagree with that Bigred. Refineries have been and are shut down on the coast. Take a good look at Freeport, Texas. Years ago that was a really jumping town, now it's pretty much a shadow of what it once was, its almost a ghost town. Why? Because several of the refineries were shut down and took the jobs that were there. I have some family down there that were involved in real estate, they can't unload anything because everyone left and no one is coming in. It's really sad to go there now and see what has happened. I'm not in the oil industry, but I can see.
