The US discovered it no longer could buy oil and gas and send money to Canada, N. and W. Africa. In a mater of a decade it sourced energy internally. The country was hemorrhaging USD for the oil exporters and wanted to put a cap on it. European countries used similar strategy with N. Sea oil post-73 oil shock. Message is clear: if one country exports goods and imports commodities, it must be prepared to pay high and higher prices for those inputs. Thus it must extract internal efficiencies if wants to keep being a transformation economy.
