I would like to see the United States adapt a similar policy with regards to it's workers. Getting away from the free trade (cheap labor) policy might allow us to rebuild our gutted industrial economy.

This is just the first tiny step toward a new form of petroleum economic. Other producers will follow, perhaps Mexico. Oil IS too valuable to export cheaply to Americans that tney might burn it up driving in circles, it's just taken too long for all and sundry to come to that conclusion.

Then again, there is nothing to prevent the Brazilians from racing through their newly- discovered oil bounty in a hearbeat all by themsslves. They (stupidly) make cars in Brazil, too.
