One way of helping with the high oil price.

Delta Air Lines buys an oil refinery. I wonder how many will follow suit?

Well if your buying crude at market price right now, you could likely sell yourself some cheaper fuel. But buying a refinery could open a whole new can of worms. Enviromental, unions, regulations and breakdowns. (Nothing against unions, but they can stop production.)
  Interesting to me, is that Canada sells a fair amount of crude to the USA, and they refine it and sell it back to us, because over here a lot of the refineries have closed down. Too much pressure from the periphials, I think.

That would be interesting.

But I think they will just sell the crude rather than use it.
