The Iran war has revealed at least two major economic lessons. It has exposed the high costs of dependence on fossil fuels and emphasized the need for countries to diversify their energy sources, such as solar and wind power. Additionally, it has shown how US trade could be if it were freed from the Jones Act. The Jones Act, part of the 1920 Merchant Marine Act, requires that ships carrying cargo between American ports be built, owned, operated under the American flag, and manned mostly by American crews.
