Open Letter To Rep. Craig
By Mitch Berg
To: Rep. Angie Craig
From: Mitch Berg, Irascible Peasant
Re: Your Superpowers
Rep. Craig,
The other day, you tweeted this:
Please tell us what ability you, a Congressional Rep and member of the Legislative Branch, have to influence the price of commodities, like gasoline?
Also – you’re aware that gas prices are falling because the market is reacting to the recession that your party is trying to tell us doesn’t exist, right?
That is all.

Ha! If you read the replies, out of 67, only one true believer (of course, it’s a woman), fell for her bull!

Oh! A toxic thot! Quick lads, the antidote!

Where was she claiming the credit when gas prices shot UP??

That tweet above is just exactly how a corporate communications professional would do it. Funny that, “Craig arrived at St. Jude Medical in 2005, and started out managing corporate communications. Over the course of the next decade, she largely worked in an internal and external communications capacity, managing the company’s relationships with employees and the media” (MinnPost).
She wrote memos. Or managed those who do. And now you know about all the “hard work” mentioned in the tweet.

That’s odd — just a few days ago MBerg and his followers claimed it was all Biden’s fault for the increase in gas prices.
Oil and gas are sold on the world market. Focus on that word “world”. There is a worldwide increase in petroleum and refined gas prices.
Irony just died from gas vapor inhalation.

^ That’s odd – you Biden-kissers were promised that gas prices would rise.
That “We are going to get rid of fossil fuels. … We’re going to phase out fossil fuels.” Then, upon taking office, the president followed these words with actions such as canceling the Keystone XL pipeline, blocking leases, restricting imports, and pursuing regulations.
You should be happy and willing to share the credit between Craig and Biden and Grantholm and Buttegieg. Everything is going just exactly like you leftists campaigned on. High fives all round!

Supplies of gas and oil are sold on the world market.
If one major gas and oil producing country reduces production, the supply to be sold on the world market decreases.
If the supply of gas and oil decreases but demand for gas and oil remains constant, the price of gas and oil will rise. Price becomes a tool to ration short supply.
When the price of short-supply gas and oil rises, demand will fall as consumers are unable to afford gas and oil, finding substitutes (walking, riding the bus or train, buying electric cars, shutting down factories, turning up thermostats).
Eventually, the price of and demand for the reduced supply of gas and oil will stabilize at some point, higher than when there was ample supply, but lower than when there was peak demand.
The quality of life and quantity of national economic vigor will be reduced from when there was ample supply.
This is the Brandon Administration plan for America and it’s working perfectly.

That’s odd — just a few days ago MBerg and his followers claimed it was all Biden’s fault for the increase in gas prices.
And just a few days before that, Biden, the Democrats and their apologists said it was out of their control, and Putin’s fault.
Either way, it doesn’t change my question. What does, or could, Craig do that would affect gas prices?
At all?

Craig has very little effect or influence on anything. She’s nothing more than a minion of George Soros. She doesn’t have the intellect to be anything more.

Scott Hughes:
Ha! Kinda explains the rest of the DemoCommies that (allegedly) represent Minnesota.

Let’s find out how the state’s Dem party responds to this little gem:

I mean, those of us paying attention, already knew that the Dems were almost there, but this puts more evidence of it.
