...have a ridiculous auto insurance system. Why sell auto insurance one policy at a time when we require almost everyone, by law, to buy it? States should adopt "Pay-at-the-Pump Private No-Fault Auto Insurance" plans that would collect the same premiums we currently collect -- but automatically, efficiently, at the gas pump.

His idea: reduce the tax rates on income up to $82,150 from 15% and 28% now to 13.5% and 26.5%; keep the present 31% rate on further income up to $200,000 but raise it to 38.5% on amounts above that.
