This is very enlightening threat: economy is a complicated subject and it is possible to come up with lots of technical explanations that support you – look at oil production, disregarding economy growth, etc. You may be basing your position on reading some biased sources that come up with these funny numbers. Given complexities, look at the big picture: Dems discourage oil industry in multiple ways. Thus, when prices are so high, it is partially their fault. You cam justifiably claim that it was a rational policy to, say, close all coal & gas in Germany and it “only” fell apart because of unpredictable Russians. Merkel still refuses to admit her fault, saying “at least I tried”. The answer is simple: if you put priority on possible near-term dangers, you will do all possible to mitigate possible harm. If you don’t, it is your fault. It is probably easier to see on the above German case that is being ridiculous, but situation in US is similar.
