"Why not? I mean those who use the service should pay for it. Conservatism 101."

Don't you mean Theft 101.

We did pay for it. That's what the Interstates are. We also pay to maintain them through gas taxes. The question is why do drivers on the Interstates have to pay to build this 4,000 mile White Elephant that no one has even asked for?

Good point...You shouldn't have to pay twice for a system...but in general toll roads are a good idea.

"4,000 mile 'white elephant'" is absolutely correct when describing the TTC! As an engineer with extensive experience, I have tried long and hard, and (with the possiblle exception of separating truck trafic from auto traffic) I can find no feature of the TTC concept that makes good sense.

I was somewhat neutral on Perry until I saw his "wet dream" called the "TTC". Now I will work long and hard to get rid of him -- ASAP!
