“Have you forgotten your meds? The money from the toll road lease funded Major Moves. “

It went to the GENERAL FUND (and you know it). Any governor can move money around in that fund ANY WAY he chooses.

We had the same problem here in Texas, with our governor. He didn’t want to raise the gas tax, so he started selling off our highways and now people pay 20+ cents per mile to drive on them (equivalent to $8.00 gasoline). This is nothing new to us Texans, believe me.

It actually funded Major Moves, just like I said. You might be surprised to find out that the lease of the ITR was a pretty big deal in Indiana. The state laid out exactly where the money was going to go.

Maybe if you’re in Texas, you might want to stick to commenting on Texas politics. Why don’t you leave Indiana politics to the Hoosiers?

By the way, care to guess how much the ITR lost in 2010, the last year data is available?

Give you a hint: Thanks a negative 209 million, suckers!

It is mind boggling that these idiots paid us nearly $4 billion, in cash, to lose $209 million annually. The people of the state of Indiana are laughing all the way to the bank.
