There is only one world oil market. If
everyone in the country stopped buying gas completely from all of the companies
who import Saudi oil, then the companies who don't currently buy Saudi oil would
have to start to make up the difference. If I had an oil well
and you refused to buy from me, that would have exactly ZERO impact on my
ability to sell the oil. The "Buy American" movement is having a similar
effect on China's ability to sell goods into our markets. This plan
makes about as much sense as the move a few years ago to pick one day on
which everyone would refuse to buy gas.
