Sen. Rand Paul Introduces Amendments to Lower Gas Prices – 03/27/12 « RunRandRun.com (http://runrandrun.com/legislation/sen-rand-paul-introduces-amendments-to-lower-gas-prices-032712/ - broken link)
So, supposed "free markets" only work for those industries Rand Paul doesn't shill for?
I realize that's political theater, but he must have drank a whole fifth of Kentucky bourbon in order to cope with the cognitive dissonance.
Why comment when you didn't understand what Rand was saying? I realize you have a weak grasp on economics but do you have to continue drinking the crony capitalist koolaid?
Poor poor big oil, they are laughing all the way to the bank with record profits quarter after quarter, while people are struggling at the pump. So let's reward them with even more government handouts and tax breaks, great idea Rand

Sane voice finally being heard..
So, what.
Does he wants to nationalize the petrol business. That's the only way to get around the "free market" concept that the Rs like so much.
That would be interesting.
You do know that in the US, petrol is already subsidized by the government.

I dont think you understand what profit percentage they make. I know you dont understand that profitable companies hire people otherwise why tax them more? Do you hate companies that create jobs?

How in the world did you get nationalize the petrol business out of what he said? Decreasing a companies tax burden equates to nationalizing an industry?

LOL you've got the right wing propaganda down pat. That poor, poor big oil. They need every government handout they can get and more. Even though they are screwing the nation over with sky high prices, they still deserve it.

Here we have a "liberterian" who promotes big government and interference with free market commerce.

I want prices to be lower too. Agreed they dont need handouts. I don't know where you saw me say that or that I was in favor of that. I do know where you pulled it out of.
Do you know the profit percentage they make? Why risk a ton of money in order to make a .5 percent profit? I wouldn't. The idea is to make a high profit percentage.
