But they’ll have to flourish in the dark, apparently.

In the dark at home.

... but that was during the worst part of a big recession ...

It just keeps getting worse, it seems to me. Watch the retail outlets disappear. Watch the road traffic disappear. Watch the value of your money shrink. It looks grim to me, but maybe I'm just grim.

Maybe. I’ve never completely understood all the causes and effects of stagflation, but I have reason to believe I understand it a bit better than the current administration does. And you do have reason to be grim, yes.

Facts? FACTS??? That’s ALL you got, just FACTS?! What a racist! :)

You can show all these charts, all these facts to liberals, and they’ll still just crawl over to DU and post about “Well, I ran into another RACIST today...”

Can Herr oBOMBa double it again, before the election? To “Teach America a lesson!”?

Gas took a 20 cent jump here in Memphis over the last week.

Steven Chu is Obama’s Energy Secretary.
Chu has called for gradually ramping up gasoline taxes over 15 years to coax consumers into buying more-efficient cars and living in neighborhoods closer to work.
“Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe,” Mr. Chu, who directs the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California, said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal in September.

one last quote from Mr. Chu:
“Coal is my worst nightmare.”

I wonder what plan Donald Trump would have to reduce the price of gas, mandate a national average? That no state could be higher than the other?

I would suggest that he rations out fuel cards that effectively gives qualified recipients free fuel for commuting, such as families with a certain income level.

I don’t care what it says, it was more than that around here.
