All four studies found prices at the pump would decline if exports are allowed, with estimates ranging from 1.5 to 13 cents a gallon.

Counter intuitive.

“Lifting the U.S. ban on crude oil exports would alleviate a growing glut of oil at the Gulf Coast refineries and should eventually reduce retail gasoline and diesel prices, benefiting U.S. consumers.”

Did the CofC write this? Glut = lower prices. Common sense.

I’m not sure whether they are right or not about the direction of oil prices, but are we not in favor of allowing the free market to work as a matter of principle? Is it not a fairly large distortion of the market to not allow a commodity to be exported if the market participants find it profitable to do so?

That doesn't make any sense, to me, at least..................
