Brilliant Flyer On the Gas Tax

Links the Minnesota bridge disaster with the gas tax holiday proposed by Clinton and McCain.

Which, of course, is the case. Our infrastructure has been chronically underfunded due to low gas taxes. As a result, our rail & other mass transit infrastructure is limited/non-existent, and our bridges aren't safe enough.

Of course, Pawlenty's push for the Twins stadium instead of bridges hurt as well.

Props to Eric Brandt for making it.
