The circular logic of gas-price hikes…Democrat style

As we near the Nov midterm election and the Democrats see their generic ballot lead go up in smoke as a GOP economy booms, they’re grasping at any message for help.

The latest – rising gas-pump prices…which is ironic, since they’re the root cause.

As noted in an IBD article, the three drivers of rising prices are OPEC, a ‘spring-blend’ environmental regulatory law, and rising demand driven by…a booming economy.

But, if we unpack the driver issues, it becomes clear that artificial supply shortages here are caused by – you guessed it – Democrat obstruction of expanding drilling.

And, oh yeah…those environmental regulations requiring costly blends of gasoline? If we’re not mistaken, a look behind the regs shows Democrats hiding in the shadows.

And, common sense tells us that increasing supplies as demand increases would allow a steady price point for gas…but, did we mention why supplies can’t increase?

For the low-information voter, their Democrat leadership may be able to keep them in the dark until election day…but the informed voter knows what Party drives costs up.

Pain at the pump? Blame Democrats.

PERIOD.

FULL.STOP.
