Kristian Leitzen writes a tongue in cheek plea to snow plow drivers in Cedar Rapids. He imagines a blunt humor about the wall of snow pushed onto his corner and asks for forgiveness while noting neighbors with snow blowers. He signs as a Cedar Rapids resident.
Leonard Pitts Jr decries the Paris Charlie Hebdo massacre and mocks the idea of satire surviving. He argues terrorists want to silence humor, then imagines a world where satire is banned and people imitate extremist codes.
Charles Krauthammer argues for a $1 per gallon gas tax funded by a revenue-neutral FICA rebate. He warns against modest increases and calls for returning the revenue to consumers to cut Social Security taxes, boosting work incentives while reducing oil consumption and pollution. He cites U.S. dominance as a gasoline consumer and advocates price-driven efficiency.
Greg Sargent notes three potential compromise areas for infrastructure trade tax reform and funding. He reports Speaker Boehner opposes a gas tax increase while Senate leaders and some GOP senators show openness. Democrats temper enthusiasm though Durbin signals support. The Highway Trust Fund near short term shortfall prompts discussion of long term funding to sustain transportation projects.
