I'm going with Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders.
'The Pope created AIDS'
'I like Eric Clapner.'
'We need to move money from cancer research to AIDS research. Because old people die from cancer and that's good for social security because they're taking it out. Young people die from AIDS and that's bad because they're paying it in."

What's wrong with her?
She's an attractive woman.
She isn't unattractive, and I guess compared to other women in the administration she is attractive.
At work, we call it "IT Hot" when a woman is not really hot but you think she is not b.c there is no competition from truly attractive women.
but she isn't a MILF, and really the term is GILF since she has grandchildren

This is much like "Army Cute" or, when deployed, "Queen for a year".

It's pretty obvious that he implied for a stronger US coal market with decreased regulations and more US coal supply( which he mentioned right after this)therefore decreasing demand and price.
At the moment there is way to much coal on the market. When asked about what his economic quote later on he didn't want to talk about it.
The DOE had to put out a tweet that references some flawed and debunked 1800 French economic theory to support what Perry had said. Anyone who's not an idiot can see that at the very least he horribly butchered simple supply/demand theory. His implication was very clear that he increased supply=increased demand/prices. We can get more complex about coal specifically but it's dying and will die because of natural gas

Wow, it's almost like Loretta Lynch didn't meet with the spouse of a target on a tarmac?

Say's law simply states that in order for someone to "demand" something, he must first have another good to provide in exchange for the thing he wants. It's a basic law of barter.

All well and good.
But, using the sentence you quoted in the OP, which YOU clearly took to be stupid on its face.......it wasn't.
And you took it that way because you thought that Supply is Driven by Demand 100% of the time like most amateur's do.
All good. I know you're not going to admit that. But it's cool.
quote:If this is the case, then it would be wise of you to quote the parts of what he said that do this rather than to use only a quote that doesn't support your assertion.

Just sayin........
Note. I don't know what all Perry said on the subject. I simply responded to your errant OP.

No question the guy has a room temperature IQ, but he's not even the dumbest appointee in tRump's cabinet (pick one from among DeVos, Carson, and of course Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III), much less the dumbest ever.

Of course it isnt 100% supply/demand
Wow you sound like a real douche

You may not care for the politics of any of the people you listed; but not one of them is "dumb."

Seriously? You are seriously throwing Ben Carson's name in the hat as one of the dumbest ever?

If you want to call someone stupid because they don't understand economics then, be smart enough to use the quotes that support your assertion.
You wrote
quote:
DOE Rick Perry at coal plant:"Here’s a little economics lesson: supply and demand. You put the supply out there and the demand will follow."
He doesn't know how supply and demand works
A reasonable person reading that would take it as you thinking the quoted sentence supports your assertion.
It didn't.
Do better next time.

To start with there cannot be a demand for a product that doesn't exist. You have to supply a product and if it is successful and well done the demand for it will grow
That is complete and utter bullshite. Do you think a company creates a product without recognizing a demand/consumer need first?
quote:
Demand can only exist when there is no supply if talking about generic ideas/needs and not specific products.
Demand can happen at any time. I demand products frequently that are always readily available and in large supply. The more scarce the product, the more I'll pay, unless substitutes are available. Furthermore, I demand many products that do not exist. Everyone does. The difference is what is feasible for a company to invest in R&D.

Maybe next week Rick Perry will talk about beanie babies.
The supply is out there so the demand will follow
