And Indiana got $4 billion for a toll road that was losing money. Remind me again why I should oppose this?
Because they paid for it and will never get it back again?
Because $4 billion may have been less than fair market?
Because the people owned it, but some bureaucrats sold it?
Because you wouldn't sell your Exxon-Mobil stock because they had two down quarters in a row?
Or maybe basically because you don't dump assets just because your crummy pricing scheme has revenues in a dip. Mismanagement is temporary and curable; nonownership isn't.
