    You should read some of the stupid comments at the end of the story.
    No wonder we are fighting an uphill battle.

    Yeah, "until it pays for the road" reminds me of a certain dictator saying that he'll give his emergency powers back when the crisis is over, and we all know how that turned out

    They said the same thing about a bridge that they built in the 1940s from southern Illinois to New Harmony, IN (which was just recently in a news article on here regarding an oversized truck). The toll is now up to $1.00 for cars and trucks are not allowed anymore.

    Don't forget the FL turnpike. Paid off for years. I don't understand why people have no balls en masse.
