re: #109 Dark_Falcon

A line so out there that economists on both sides of the aisle lined up to club it.

I’ve had a few wingnuts try to argue that it could happen. Almost all of them plied the “market signals” line, namely “All she has to do is lick Big Oil’s boots publicly and oil prices will plummet. Hey, it worked for Bush!” Others have been trying to push oil shale as the answer, saying if she comes in and pushes for heavy federal subsidies and doing away with regs, it could become “cheap” before the end of her first term.

Some folks aren’t even on speaking terms with reality.
