Tolling is how an entity gets paid for the construction and/or maintenance of a bridge if it doesn't have full funding.
I think everyone is well aware of this, but... And this is my opinion, but infrastructure should be one area government spends money because.. Well tax dollars should be used for projects that benefit the people who pay taxes.
But when you see everything that the government spends money on then they build something that tax dollars should go towards and then they charge people to use it. They find money to do whatever they want, but don't have a problem milking the tax payers. I wonder if Ukraine pays a toll?

This is true.
But Ukraine is just a blip on the radar screen.
We just began sending funds and ammo in their direction.
But decades go by and we spend trillions on social programs that have no bottom. Instead they create more and more folks who depend on the govt. or who know how to scam the system.
They just passed an incredible infrastructure plan. How much of that though is going to roads, bridges and highways? Not much.
