Wow. Want to read some unhinged leftiness? Here’s a comment from Scot at One Wisconsin Now about gas prices on Daily Takes:
Possible solutions —
Punish the oil companies for the gouging. Don’t reward them with $5 billion in tax breaks, as the Republicans did, and then rewards them with another $3.8 billion in tax breaks alone for the five biggest oil companies.
Don’t have two oil whores running the country. (Hint who they are: one’s a miserable failure who relied on daddy, one ultra-successful at extracting government funds for the benefit of his private corporation)
If you’re going to try and grab middle east oil by invading a country, like, have a plan to win. Because the failure of Bush and company to use the greatest military personnel in the world effectively is tragic and only encourages enemies who wish to do us harm. And it’s given the oil companies over five years to claim they have to jack prices in response. Well played.
So there’s a couple. I await your breathless clarification that the Bush years have been okely dokely, as Myron Cope would say.
Sound like solutions to you?
