Seems to me he might have an intrest in the tax. I believe the roads should be toll anyway. At least you should have to maintain them by state and not the feds.

If you drive on the roads you should pay for them not having someone in NC pay for a road in Ill or Indiana.

A lot of toll roads end up becoming patronage mills, the Pennsylvania Turnpike being a prime example.
