It might imply the opposite; I think a reasonable argument could be made either way. I think most likely the two propositions (energy prices and good governance) are orthogonal at best. But I think there’s very little support for the flat statement I quoted from the post. Higher energy prices are political suicide under any form of government? I think that’s quite obviously false.
