If we are not paying market rates for the product, we won't be getting investors/oil companies spending money in this country to produce the product.

[[If we are not paying market rates for the product,]]

This might be a problem as thigns produced here generally costm ore than thigns that we import- hence why we import- not sure if import oil is cheaper than domestically produced oil, but it woudl seem that it will be quite expensive to go compeltely domestic for our total oil use- Derek workers get a massive salary as opposed to oil workers overseas- as well oil companies here have to pay farm ore in fines, permits etc etcd etc- Import oil may be what’s keeping prices down some- I don’t know-
