True Nightmare

[Pipe_Dream]

Okay, I said I wouldn't get into a political discussion, but the price of gas is economics.

Everyone in the good ol' USA needs to understand something: the POTUS does not set the price of oil. There is precious little he/she can do to even slightly influence the supply of oil, let alone the price.

The same goes for the economy. Aside from changing income tax rates, the POTUS cannot greatly influence the economy. All he/she can do is try to take credit/try to deflect blame for the economy of his/her term.

Got it?

BTW, this thread ought to be in Off Topic.
