I'd have no problem with toll-funded assets if all of the toll went directly towards paying for the asset being tolled. In too many toll facilities, most of the tolls are siphoned off to pay for things that have nothing to do with the asset.

And have you seen how much toll collectors make? It is nuts! If it was up to me, I'd ban all human toll collecting.

Lived there for 2 years. What I found was a state of bloated bureaucracy filled to the brim with overlap and duplication and run by the unions.

The state has 501 school districts!! Some school districts only have a single high school. Every township has its own police department. Some of these townships are within larger cities with their own police departments. From where I sit, this is waste in the extreme.

I loved PA. It is a marvelous place with beautiful scenery and friendly people, but I glad to get back to the south where efficiency actually exists in government to some degree. It is really no wonder why the state is broke and looking to soak their citizens with more taxes, tolls, and levies. When Governor Ed questioned the need for so many school districts, He was slapped down and promptly dropped it.
