Where are you people getting your information that the USA somehow has idle heavy oil processing despite record production levels?

I literally linked my source. It's less than 7 minutes long. It's not that refineries are idle, it's that we have to import the heavy crude to keep them producing. Heavy crude went from 12% of imports to 70% as of 2025. The most relevant graphs, if you really can't stomach 7 minutes of video, are shown from 3:30 - 4:30ish in the video. And again, record production levels of shale oil is producing LIGHT crude. The information you're seeking has already been provided to you.
Hey Abigail, just following up. Were you able to find the information you needed? Where'd ya go?
