The West Virginia Turnpike

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Virginia_Turnpike

Is still a toll road, commissioned in 1952
At the time, it was the most expensive turnpike ever built, per mile. My Father floated the bond issue that created it, and had the first bond printed in his office. It’s maintanance is still a major cost item. I understand well why it it is charging tolls.

What does that have to do with Obama collecting tolls for federal interstates? Other than the fact that they refer to roads?
