“IH 35 (TTC) is about a mile from my front door. I'm all for shutting it down, now not later. This is one of the many Bush-Perry scams perpetrated on Texas.”

I can sympathize with you about loosing property and having this huge corridor at your front door should it ever be built. But, on the other hand, I think you may agree that something must be done to add more highway capacity from the Mexican border northward. So, if not the TTC, then what would you suggest as an alternative?

I won't be losing property unless some Muslim posing as a Mexican truck driver detonates a nuke in Austin. I'm for not letting Mexican trucks drive on my taxpayer funded roads and not letting illegal aliens across the border.

That's my alternative.

You are posing "facts" which are not in evidence. The border needs to be shut off, and traffic reduced dramatically. This defeats that purpose.

If Mexico and China are going to force goods to be shipped up through Texas, let it be on rails.
