The government can't do it unless there is a national emergency (in petroleum), which is not there. There is no shortage anywhere. Also, import/exports are needed due to long border region and different grades of oil produced compared to what is needed. It is easier to export oil on east coast and import from west coast than pumping or moving oil 3,000 miles overland.It's simple, the government just needs to ban exports.
It is worse than that. Great lakes are strictly binational. We can negotiate with Canada and share them 3-2 if we are crazy about such things, but Strait of Hormuz at 21 nautical miles at its narrowest is international waterway. Iran having 'Sovereignity' over it is akin to U.S. owning moon because Neil Armstrong planted a flag on it in 1969.That would be equivalent to the US advising Canada that the 4 remaining Great Lakes are all solely under US control. That's not likely to happen nor should I give the President any further ideas to consider.
