The poor people are dying early from morbid obesity and morbid obesity related disorders, and the roads are full of potholes and cracking.

Since American voters hate energy taxes, the petrol tax has not increased since 1993 and its purchasing power has declined. Adjusted for inflation, it is now worth only 11.5 cents. Had it been indexed to inflation 20 years ago (says the Centre for American Progress, a leftish think-tank), it would now be 29 cents a gallon.
