It's all about greed by corporate greedholders and American sell outs. I'm sorry, but in a capitalist system, all profit is not greed. In a socialist system all profit is greed. As for me and my business, I prefer the former. If you can get the capital together and do it for zero profit, put your bid in. Only a true socialist would call stockholders, "greedholders".

No, only a true socialist would justify selling out America by having it SINK to Mexico’s level as corporate greedholders profit; the result of the greedholders and sell-outs is that three countries are equalizing as American taxpayers foot the bill for the “equalization”.

Cintras will be leasing our (NJ) toll roads too. It should be known that these lease agreements carry non-compete clauses. Meaning, roads not owned by this lease cannot be kept in better or more accessable condition than their own.
These toll road leases include any road that is decided to have a toll put on it too.

Exactly. Real "free market" there, ain't it?

"'Governor Perry has been 100 percent gung-ho in building this road,' says Corsi. 'The Legislature voted a two-year moratorium, it voted a redefinition of eminent domain -- [and] Governor Perry vetoed them. [On] at least one of those measures, he waited until the Texas Legislature was out of session so it couldn't even override his veto.'"

Should also be pointed out. Banco Santander Central Hispano, S.A is blacklisted for trading with Iran, Syria and Cuba. Yet, Santander has participated with an IPO with Cintra.

Free market is only available to cartels. That is capitalism after all.

What is happening to our country? What is happening to our Constitution? Democracy? Capitolism?
Is it all about money? We are being sold out by the almighty dollar?

I can't disagree with you more.
Most of the problems we now face, as a Country, are directly related to greed. And you can't/don't see that, do you?
There is absolutely nothing wrong, in any way, shape, or form, in making a profit, and I mean LOTS of it.
However, there are three golden rules which have served our Country well over the years.
In the process of making a profit, an entity should always operate...
1. Legally.
2. Ethically.
3. Morally.
Now, tell me, just how ethical it is to sell the ground out from under the feet of Americans who have worked so hard to build this Country. Please, explain to me how it's moral to, knowingly, put Americans out of business and jobs, for the sake of a few dollars in the hands of foreign shareholders.
I have no qualms, zero, in helping other Nations reach a higher level of sustainability, and quality of life. But to give away what we have worked for, paid for, and died for is the most disgusting, vile, contemptuous, act of government we shall all ever witness.
If WE, as a people, allow this to happen, we deserve what we get.

Oh, this must be the highway that Bush dismissed as fantasy just the other day...
That man can't open his mouth without lies coming out of it.
To: nicmarlo
Not only that, but as we found out in Indiana, we can’t build any roads that would compete or harm the tollway’s business.
