Toll roads are the epitome of capitalism and quite American. To have a public / private consortium step in to fund the billions of dollars in up-front costs associated with road building to serve routes where public funding is not available on its own is a great solution and there ABSOLUTELY has to be a profit reward as an ROI.
Optional toll roads that provide more direct or faster moving routes are a convenience for which I am willing to pay. Thinking someone should put up the funds in the absence of a generous profit is un-American. Those who don’t like toll roads can avoid them.
The toll roads referenced, a Fascist partnership between elite ruling class insider private and governmental controlled corporations, with State Bureaucracies of appointed Public "Servants" are entirely unAmerican, unethical, immoral and criminal.

LOL. Tell that to people that have to live under the BACKROOM DEALS, many still secret, that, among other things, PREVENT the state from upgrading parallel roads. Roughly 40 cents per mile in this one case:

I’m glad this crap keeps failing and hopefully it ends once and for all.
