Just Get Out Of The Way!

First and foremost, as a limited-government proponent, “sit idly by” is pretty much exactly what I want politicians to do. At least on the gas prices issue. Political solutions to high prices are almost always worse than the high prices themselves, and given that most liberals like Hillary Clinton support punishments for the oil industry in the form of new taxes and regulations (things that would only drive prices upward) that’s certainly true in this instance. Just last night Hillary was basically telling Bill O’Reilly that she’d like the government to regulate oil industry profits. That’s not anything any free-market loving American should want.
