You aren't watching Fox News enough.

I’d love to hear feedback from someone who espouses government regulation to protect coal mines and gun manufacturers, while simultaneously saying the invisible hand will solve all problems. Do they have an actual rational argument for why one is good and the other is bad? Other than of course the obvious “Because energy companies vomit fucktons of money into my PAC, and baby seals not so much.” Or do they just ignore the inherent logical contradiction, knowing that the people they need to convince either (a) already agree with them, or (b) are too stupid to get it?

Seriously, I’m being snarky, but I’d really like to see how someone responded if any reporter has called them on it.
