Introduced to help enforce price controls in the fuel-hungry 1970s, America’s ban on crude-oil exports was all but forgotten when the economy boomed and imports soared. Now it is in the news again. It keeps American Crude around $10 below the price. Cash-strapped oilmen would like to sell their product abroad and are lobbying to lift the ban. (這樣做還有一堆的好處，我就不摘錄了。)But politicians are fearful. Sooner or later, the petrol price will go up again--and anyone who voted to allow precious hydrocarbons to be sold to foreigners will be in the firing line.
