I prefer the government stay away. But an effective way of doing what you intend would be a tax on exported oil.
Of course, that would eventually be abused though.

The key point, is government. Yes, that is certainly a big hurdle. I don’t like it anymore than you do.

I just realize how bad it was when we had long lines at gas stations because the Middle-East had us literally over a barrel.

We need to be energy self-sufficient. Selling off our energy around the world is a fools game IMO.
