Obama is wrong about the gas tax
Think Clinton's plan to suspend the gas tax temporarily is a bad idea? A similar measure in Illinois -- which Obama backed -- seems to have helped consumers.
By George Frost [2008-05-06]

  • Fossil fool

    Somebody help me understand George Frost's argument:

    1) The right thing to do would be to raise gas taxes by $2 or so.

    2) Since that can't happen (dang those spineless politicians), the next best thing to do is to cut gas taxes to 0.

    3) Cutting the transportation infrastructure budget by $9 billion won't matter because -- oh, wow, look at that!! Sorry, what were we talking about?
