Here you come with that crock of regurgitated shit again. Rolling it out, once more. The last paragraph is the hilarious one: "But in the long-run Americans would see some very real benefits from a price of gas that most closely reflected the true cost of driving. Fewer loved ones killed in car crashes. Healthier pregnancies and babies. More time spent with family and friends. Better access to jobs, and perhaps as productivity increased, higher wages. More livable developments and, with them, slimmer waistlines. Cleaner and quieter air. The sorts of things we can't fit in our purses or wallets, but which cost us dearly just the same." Hell, yes. Great reasons for higher taxes, real benefits. What idiocy. We don't need higher gasoline taxes. We need politicians who, when given a trillion dollars to spend on "shovel ready infrastructure" projects, actually spend it on that instead of using it to pay off political supporters.
