Taxpayers for Common Sense was created as sort of a left-wing counterpart to the National Taxpayers Union. Back when the Antiplanner was still a mainstream environmentalist, Taxpayers for Common Sense asked me to be on its board of advisors — and I am still listed there, although they don’t ask me for advice very often.
Anyway, while I don’t agree with everything they say, they are taking the right approach on transportation. They are not impressed by proposals to raise gasoline taxes in order to repair decrepit bridges.
