I would support this IF:

a) they put out a list of the projects that will be funded
b) BR loop is #1 on that list
c) any Rep or Senator that votes for this will be subject to summary execution if a single penny is used for any other purpose than transportation
d) any Rep or Senator that votes to reallocate existing transportation funds to the general fund will be subject to summary execution
d) any Rep or Senator that votes to subsequently remove provisions (c) or (d) will be subject to summary execution

We went that route before when Roemer was governor, and the list of those projects still isn't complete.

And the powers that be become very creative in inventing ways to spend money on things other than roads and bridges.

No. Those projects are decided by politicians and tend to be stupid arse political nonsense (like Louisiana's own version of the bridge to nowhere).
