In our case, they want to toll the roads our tax dollars have already paid for. It's no secret the anti-toll group here is backing Strayhorn. I most likely will, too.

Yeah... they are doing that here as well. Justification? "You can still use the frontage road for free". Yeah... right. If you have seven hours to kill just to make it from one side of the city to the other.

Where do you get the notion that your tax payments give you some sort of "virtual title" to a road? I hate taxes as much as the next person, but understand that they operate as more of a lease payment . . . funny that that is what Cintra will be doing as well, making lease payments to TxDOT.
