"Portions of this agreement are being kept secret under the guise that they contain proprietary business information. CorridorWatch.org believes in open and transparent government. CorridorWatch.org believes that this is public business, public infrastructure, and that the public interest and the public's right to know what obligations its government is creating is more important than any purported public benefit derived from protecting proprietary business information. Government conducted in the shadows is never good government."

I don't see how this is even legal. It's so unAmerican. I'd raise cain over this issue alone.

In a word: NIXONIAN

I knew from Day One that Cintra and Perry would never let us see just how badly the drivers of Texas are getting shafted. There is NO REASON to hide any portion of the contract - everyone knows how tolling works, and, for us middle class people, we hate it.

We drivers in Texas are stuck with it for the next 50 years, whether we like it or NOT. Wait - there is one reason to hide the details, that's to avoid the political firestorm that's sure to follow if the details were ever known.
