"Wow you are correct... but most of the companies operating out of them are private companies operating for profit.... or at least an attempt at profit. Lots of right of ways are operated by private companies for a profit. Would you prefer they were run by a government and required huge subsidies?

I know of heavily subsidized rail corridors. I do not know of subsidized toll roads. If you are referring to a FREEWAY being operated by private company, and thus charging the government, I have no issue with that, if it can be done more cheaply than the government trying to run it.
In that case, there would be no profit motive to screw the drivers of Texas, as Perry is now setting up with Cintra.
