umm…maybe they should be asking the government to streamline the process for getting approved to build new refineries instead. I am understanding the whole picture a little better now. I was under the impression that all petroleum product exportation was not allowed. And no, I am not a dumb boat person. I know my trade and the details of if to a great extent. Much as an economist knows about the economy but would know nothing about overhauling an engine or how many amps through the heart it would take to incapacitate a person.
In short, no I do not think the ban on crude oil export should be lifted.
