That is what I mean.

I assume you live upstate New York and I live and grew up on Long Island, but lived just outside Rochester. You are quite familiar with the NYS Thruway. The tolls are still there right? Wasn't the Thruway paid for already? Why is the thruway a federal interstate highway receiving federal funds? I have seen taxes implemented for good causes that were supposedly just temporary, but they were made permanent. The revenue collected from the tolls on the bridges and tunnels around New York City are treated and considered as a general tax.

You may not agree with all of the contributors of content to "World Net Daily" that does not justify your shot however. That is even especially important since a major contributor is Dr. Jerome Corsi.

My warning is that each issue may seem isolated, but that is rather rare. In my opinion Long Island is hopeless now after dying a death of a thousand cuts. Will the whipping boy be allowed to turn towards the rest of New York State?
