Talk about ignorance…

Hillary has suggested as has McCain, a federal “tax holiday” on gasoline for the summer. It translates into a 22 cent savings for gas in most places, and more for diesel customers. I have no issue except Hillary believes she is going to make the oil companies “pay” for the decrease in revenue that will result from the reduction of the tax to the federal government.

This is why we have to elect Americans that have actually lived and worked in business prior to being elected. It is amazing that these words left her mouth, and that there isn’t more outrage over her ignorance. If she makes oil companies “pay” for the tax, how do you think they will “get” that money? Do you think it will come out of their profits or your pocket? If you said your pocket, you get an A and should run for president. It will be just an exercise in who collects the 22 cents.

These candidates, every one of them, is an economic illiterate; period. We deserve better…
