Sure! Just like the state stopped charging tolls on the Thruway once it paid for itself! Like they originally said they wouldI>

Same with New Jersey and the Garden State Parkway. That same promise was issued back in the 1950's. The Parkway has been paid off for over 30 years now, but the tolls continue.

I don't know what's worse - the fact that they lie like that, or the fact that so many people believe the lies.

The Thruway lie is only my second-favorite Big Lie from Albany though - my number-one favorite is "Lotto money funds education!" Dunno if there's a NJ equivalent to that one, but sure, NY Lotto money funds education...by going into the state's general fund, where it pays for education. And every other damn thing the state spends money on ;)
