He is going to balance the budget (on a one year basis) by converting the interstate highways to toll roads and then selling that to a foreign company.

I thought that I was the only one who figured it out. Actually, we could run our government for another 3 or so years, without a deficit, but doing just that.

...of course that means an extra 20 cents to one dollar per mile for the rest of our existence...and no way in hell to pay our debt after that 3 year holiday.

Yea...he’s my man. LOL.

Wow... What ignorance.
He LEASED (with a HUGE upfront payment) an ALREADY-toll road to a foreign conglomerate that has spent tons of money repairing and remodernizing it, at their own expense, and we get it back if they miss the HUGE payments.

An asset that COST the taxpayers millions of dollars a year in losses is now a revenue generating asset.

In other words, he’s done EXACTLY what a true conservative would want him to do.
