I guess you could say that they understand pandering to the economically ignorant to win votes.

Simply claiming that "WERE REPUBLICANS WE KNOW ECONOMICS" doesn't mean that you do, really I have yet to see you present an economic argument other then your little partisan diatribe about how your understanding of economics is so superior that you can violate basic principles of it.

Please tell me,

1.) How does subsidizing oil industries create a free lunch

2.) Where is the proof that demand for gas and oil is perfectly inelastic

3.) Why Artificially Suppressing the Price of Gas and Oil is a good idea when it will merely slow the adoption of alternative technologies
