Taxing gasoline is good for america.

While not well know, there is a lot of conservative economic support for HIGHER gasoline taxes.  The U.S. has the lowest gasoline taxes in the world.  I'm strongly in favor of raising them.  Read the quick post below, and u can see a list of people in favor of higher gas taxes.

Btw, Mankiew writes probably the best economics blog period.  He also is author of the most popular economic textbook.  If you took econ in college you probably used his book.  He's a smart guy, and has a lot of common sense.
