Complete bullshite. How many times do you think the Causeway has been purchased and that road is shite. It's got hundreds of state employees sucking off the taxpayer tit but the same thin lanes and not even a shoulder to pull off on.

Look into tolls in the northeast. In places like New Jersey and New York toll collectors are making $80,000-$100,000 a year and they're getting fat pensions with lifetime benefits. Now the state can't get out from these costs.

We pay taxes already. Taxes are supposed to be used for roads, bridges and schools. Yet, this money is squandered away by corruption. Now instead of fixing the corruption, you want to give those same assholes more of our money. frick that. There's more than enough raised to perform the basic functions of government if we weren't doling out funds to shithead sponges and deadbeats.
