This is what happens when politicians misappropriate gas tax revenues for "mass transit" and funding social programs instead of paying for road infrastructure. The advent of toll roads means we get to pay taxes on gasoline that get diverted to everything except the road maintenance for which they were intended AND we get to pay tolls to people who actually provide a road as a service.

I wouldn't mind the toll if we could remove the government thievery at the gas pump. It is fraudulent taxation. Right up there with AMT and social security.
