Gas is below $3.00 per gallon. This is proof that Democrat policies are good for America.<\/p>\n
Plainly, raising the minimum wage does not cause prices to go up: just the opposite, they went down. Restricting oil permits on federal lands did not cause a shortage of domestic oil: we\u2019re awash with it so prices are falling. And there\u2019s no need to worry about stability in the Middle East when America now produces more oil than Saudi Arabia. The natural conclusion is we should elect more Democrats to continue their good work.<\/p>\n Or . . . gas prices are falling because demand is falling<\/a> as the economy worldwide is collapsing. Mitt Romney famously pointed out that gas was $1.81 when Barack Obama took office, to which Liberals everywhere insisted that low gas prices were due to impending economic collapse.<\/a> If the same logic applied now as applied then, we should be worried. Very worried.<\/p>\n This time it\u2019ll be different, of course. This time, it\u2019ll be Bush\u2019s fault. To be fair, I think the administration is going to have to pivot from blaming Bush to blaming the next<\/em> president.<\/p>\n Eventually, anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Joe Doakes from Como Park emails: Gas is below $3.00 per gallon.
