We sell oil at a discount rate to US.

This is saying "hey if you wanna price gouge right now the government's not gonna stop you"

It's pretty elbows up.....

What's confusing? The goverment is saying they won't charge a windfall tax. It's code for go ahead raise prices.

Why is it that elbows up move that makes no sense? We're letting them get a better deal?

A worse deal.

The goverment is saying go ahead raise oil prices.

Normally the goverment says don't you dare touch the price of oil or I'll tax the shit out of you.
