I think they should follow this logic to its logical conclusion and ban all woman smaller 5′ from the front seat.

The original version of the bill would have banned teens up to 16 years old from sitting in the front seat if they couldn’t pass the five-step test.

The conclusion often attached to that comparison is that refiners must be gouging consumers. It sounds plausible because crude oil is the main raw material used to make diesel. But it leaves out the critical part of the market that has become the real bottleneck: refining.
