“I'm highly, highly skeptical that the Jones Act waiver is going to have much of an impact at the pump or for the American consumer. If the Jones Act didn't exist, first people that would get hit would be the shipbuilders in America because all these vessels will be built internationally, and then the mariner would be the next person that took a hit.”
This offers a strong, contrarian critique of a government policy (Jones Act waiver), arguing its stated consumer benefits are overstated and could harm domestic industries and jobs.
