Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer might be the living embodiment of comedian Ron White’s signature phrase: You Can’t Fix Stupid.
On a more charitable note, maybe Schumer just never mastered Economics 101. The dismal science provides challenges for lots of people, but the law of supply and demand rules over all, especially when it comes to gas prices.
In an interview on ABC’s This Week on Sunday morning, Schumer got turned around and confused on the economic principle of “sticky prices.” He also used the opportunity to take a shot at oil giant Exxon Mobil.
After succeeding Harry Reid of Nevada as Senate Minority Leader, Schumer has shown he’s following the same leadership style of never letting facts get in the way of rampant demagoguery.
Learn just how ignorant Schumer is on basic economic principles on the next page. Also, find out why gas prices have hit a low not seen since 2005.
Because every time the price of the actual gasoline goes down, Liberals jack up the taxes on the gas (like a 42% gas tax increase in CA). Therefore in the Liberal mind gas prices should never go down, always up with more & more taxes for them to squander.
He’s a dope, he reads answers prepared
By staffers, he gets an assistant to help
Blow his own nose
He’s a idiot, needs to get a mental evaluation!
Does he even drive?
Dumbasses
He doesn’t even put gas in his own car.
Senior Dumbshit in the Party of Asses.
Elected official that’s out of touch with current events and constituents.
