"toll roads will cost more than gasoline taxed roads."

Much, much, much, more. Anywhere from 5 to 10 times more per mile. But the activists, I think, finally figured out that if you charge everyone something like 20 cents per mile to drive, you WILL get people off of the roads, BIG TIME.

Personally, I prefer the side of freedom - letting people drive when they want or needed to, and then adding capacity as required. I'm not one of these big-government toll road supporter types.

i agree with you.

but why doesn't the public pick up with this?

it's going to cost consumers and business bundles of money more for tolls.
