The real goal of leftists is to get you out of your car and onto public transportation. Then they can mess with you via all the strikes by the unionized public transit workers shutting down the only way you have to go to work. The automobile represents individual freedom. Mass transit = socialism.

It's not just leftists, have this push in Texas through Rick Perry (although he is a former Democrat). The state is pushing toll roads all over the place, as well as light rail, as well as a huge transportation corridor (interesting enough, headed up and being built by a European consortion, if you are into conspiracy theories).

Not only new toll roads, but roads that have already been paid for, are going to be converted - how's that for double taxation. Don't even think about taking service roads - they are going to have areas where the service roads don't connect, as well keeping lights out of sync so that it's much slower.

LOL! It seems they can never quite change their stripes. It's interesting here in California the toll roads all run through the newer affluent developments! I think they like keeping out the riff-raff that can't afford the tolls!
I won't live in these communities, I can't stand homeowners associations. I really don't like someon telling me I can't park my car on my own driveway or paint my house the color I want.
