Denying something is very reasonable when what your denying is false, as it is in this case.

It silly to say it's not a drag on our economy.

No its just the truth. The oil helps our economy more than the cost, so its a net positive. Sure the cost considered in isolation is a drag on our economy, just like any cost is, but overall on the net there is a benefit that's larger than the cost.
