The problem with repealing the Jones Act is a huge amount of ocean transport is controlled by Chinese and other un-friendly countries. If we don’t develop an domestic shipping industry soon, we’ll be beholden to foreign powers. Can you imagine a scenario where the USA attempted to intervene on the behalf of an ally and the result was no power or heat in New England. Our economy collapses and people panic. If we want gas from Texas, we need to pressure our elected officials to incentivize an American LNG fleet.
