The toll collectors on the PA turnpike are Teamsters.
Over two years, I saw the toll for a small section of road increase nearly 100%.
Never saw any word done on that section of road.
Gotta pay those union wages.
Gotta pay those union benefits.
Gotta pay those union pensions.
Need to do some research...but I have always wondered how the entire United States Interstate Highway system got built in the first place. It takes one hundred and eleventy billion dollars and like 20 years to improve 5 miles of highway today. I am pretty damn sure it did not take nearly as much money or time when they were built. If it cost then what it costs today per mile, we would have been broke a million times over, and still be waiting for 90% of it to be built.
