Or as in the case of Austin Texas, existing highways can be stolen from the public and converted into toll roads.

That's what they want to do in San Antonio. The problem with Austin is they didn't have a 'loop' so they've known traffic headaches for a long time.

That is a lie, no existing roads were converted to tolls. It was only new construction (such as adding mainlanes in between existing frontage roads or completely new roads) that were tolled.

And you'll never catch me on one unless I'm fleeing a hurricane.
