That will happen either way. Other countries will just fill the gap of our non-production.

So if a mob is kicking someone to death and getting paid, we should just put our boots on. Because why should we not get paid. I see where you're coming from. Good for you. It's not my thing.

That's a ridiculous comparison. If you take such an extreme view, why not advocate the total ban on the sale of oil and gas? You might get a few complaints when people start dying from cold, or from essential goods and services not being delivered. But a small price to pay for the greater good, eh?
