My 35 million barrels (conservative) of refining lost in the two weeks of Rita shutdowns is going to be far too low. Per WSJ.com most of the Houston refineries won't be good to go until late this week. wallstreetexaminer.com

so, if they are paying them $15 an hour, why is it that all the "chronically unemployed" who are US citizens don't do the work? if Americans are too lazy to do the work, they should give the Mexicans citizenship if they work a certain period of time. Did you miss the part of the article where they said the workers were being housed in trailers that had no electricity or water? Given that much of the population of New Orleans earned minimum wage before the hurricane, I don't doubt there would be people who would want to take a job at $15/hr. I just don't think they would want to live in slave labor camps.
