yes but how much of that gasoline was made from American crude oil? America has plenty of refineries, just none of them designed for American oil

Crude oil us primarily classified based on density and sulphur content. It's all hydrocarbons and a portion of all of it can be turned into gasoline.

dude. we are not talking about the gasoline. we are talking about the oil being used to make the gasoline. what percentage of the crude oil being refined into American gasoline is American produced crude oil?
