Dunno, $100/bbl is $2.50 per gallon. Add $.50 for tax and you only
have a few cents left to refine it and ship to my town. For the
benefit, I find that a pretty good deal.


Refining, shipping, taxes, and the retailer's profit add up
to about $1.25 a gallon. Those are pretty constant (altho
the cost of shipping does vary some with the price of fuel).
The remainder is the cost of oil.
