So... I guess you're fully in favor of raising fuel taxes to build new roads and fix up the ones we already have. How much of a tax increase do you think is fair? Another buck a gallon on top of what you're already paying? Or would you be willing to support two bucks a gallon?

In recent years, several new turnpikes have been built in southern California. This is LA, home of the freeway, where driving on toll-free roads is considered a birthright. Yet I can guarantee you that the folks who use those toll roads are very happy to have the opportunity to pay for a shorter commute.
