Yes, that is the goal. The pint of the article is that if America produces so much oil i doesn’t need to import any, then the glut on the world market will make oil $10 a barrel. Or less.
In a free market oil refineries would not buy American oil for more than it could buy foreign oil. This means that American oil drillers must be able to make a profit at $10 a barrel. Or less. Those workers cannot make good wages if oil is at $10 a barrel.
The only way the world oil price doesn’t go to $10 a barrel is if imports are banned unless American oil goes above $50 a barrel or something. This would amount to federal price supports for the American oil industry at the cost of the consumer.
I personally think that is fine. I can live with $3 gas if it means complete oil independence, even if the rest of the world has cheaper gas and enjoys the glut.
I can live with driving the price of oil low so the islamic terror financiers have less money.
