Bachmann Strikes Again: Promises ‘Cheap Gas’ If Elected | Addicting Info
“Under President Bachmann you will see gasoline come down below $2 a gallon again,” Bachmann told a crowd Tuesday in South Carolina. “That will happen.“
“The day that the president became president gasoline was $1.79 a gallon,” Bachmann said. “Look what it is today.”
“We’re going to have to recognize the rest of the world has this increasing appetite for oil,” he said. “If we go below $2 a gallon, it probably means there has been a lot of wealth loss and we are in a deflationary period.”
No real facts. She just pulled this out of her ass, as usual.
She could use her farm subsidy money to help lower gas prices, but that would only help a small number of people (even though she gets as much as $250,000). The Strib has an article on it today (not the gas prices but her income).
