If the alternative is no oil at all, yes they are. 1% tolls are bloody great. Give me 1% tolls.
but "no oil at all" is what we've got. and it's what we've had since this stupid war began, and it's what we'll have until it ends.
and, frankly, I see the most likely scenario being that Trump fucked anyone out of any long-term position of being able to charge tolls, but, short-term, Iran will use it to negotiate for something else that it wants. something big.
