Earth to Bush

If you believe in free markets, why do you subsidize the cost of gas, which only leads to overconsumption and pollution?

President Bush called on Congress on Saturday to pass the energy legislation he proposed nearly four years ago, saying that "American families and small businesses across the country are feeling the pinch from rising gas prices."

It's called free market economics, you seem to be a big fan of it sometimes. Bush's plan? More domestic oil and gas production. What's wrong with this man? If you had the choice between hanging onto the vestiges of a rapidly disappearing dirty energy source (oil, coal, gas) or a clean, limitless one (wind, solar), which one would you invest money in?
