How is this so difficult to imagine being games?

I "sell" you 10,000 barrels of fuel. Then I give you back 99% of your money. Rinse and repeat, you've generated lots of RINs with little capacity for anyone to catch you downstream. Contrast this with a carbon tax, where in order to legally generate revenue one must pay the tax.

RINs aren't generated when biodiesel is sold, they're generated when biodiesel is produced.
