We have looked all around the issue for the past few years and have not found a single, solitary good reason the $2 fee shouldn’t be continued once the bonds are paid off in May 2019.

Probably not a single solitary good reason, but certainly a laudable idea that a Government would keep their promise to terminate a tax when the bonds it was designated for are paid off. Someone better put a stop to this before it spreads.

These blankety blanks.

They have it backwards.

The question should not be, what reason is there that the toll shouldn’t be continued.

The question should be, what reason is there that the toll should be continued.

There’s a difference.

The onus should be on those who want to continue the toll, after the reason for the toll is gone. The onus should not be on us, to have to ask them why they won’t delete the toll as agreed to, when the bonds are paid off.
