“Basic economics. Supply/demand I will supply you a fast lane and the price depends on how many bidders there are.”
They should have made that argument BEFORE they asked the taxpayers to pay for these roads in the first place. As it stands, we paid for them, we own them, we should be able to use them without getting gouged by wasteful politicians who are greedy for another way to plug their budget gaps.

In one way I agree with you about our roads and greedy politicians, however, if you open all lanes to all drivers w/out the tolls you will have nothing but congestion with no option to get out of it. Sometimes (I need to catch a plane) I’m willing to pay to get moving. I hate the TSA also. I wish we could get rid of them but it’s not in the cards so I buy precheck so I can actually make my flight and not have to sleep in the airport.
