Would it not make more sense just to stop exports for a while, uh, and, and allow the, the prices in the US to go down because the, the domestic supply would increase?

Well, I am a free trader at heart, but when the chips are down and when the US economy is suffering under the weight of higher diesel prices, that certainly looks like an option.

Uh, you said it correctly.

We are a diesel superpower.

No other country refines or exports more diesel each day than the United States.

Russia used to be second.

Uh, the Gulf States collectively were around the th- in the third rank there.

What kind of impact will that little bit have on the overall price of diesel?
