Fact of the Month

Quote/Unquote:

"Cutting income taxes (by 10%) while increasing gasoline taxes (by 50 cents-per-gallon) would lead to more economic growth, less traffic congestion, safer roads, and reduced risk of global warming — all without jeopardizing long-term fiscal solvency. This may be the closest thing to a free lunch that economics has to offer."
- N.Gregory Mankiw, Professor of Economics, Harvard University.
