If we put a modest export tariff on crude oil, an amount that would still leave the oil at a competitive price, we could start retiring the national debt.

Go read Article I, Section 9 of the US Constitution and report back.

Okay....change that to an excise tax.

We need an IMPORT tariff on oil not an export tariff. Export tariffs are unconstitutional anyway.
