Simple solution - don’t use the road. No one is making you use it. There are other routes. This is capitalism at work. Why are you people knocking it?

Because we already paid for it - that’s how come we have a right to use it.

Actually yes they are because it is the main commuter road from the Virginia suburbs into the DC metro area. Have a job, you need to drive to it.

There are other routes.

Actually there aren't. Look at an f'in map instead of spouting of your ignorant mouth.

This is capitalism at work.

Nope. It's DC crony corruption at work. Let's solve our problems and bring the efficiencies of the private sector to bear on public problems. Let's give away public infrastructure to our friends and, granted a monopoly, let them charge whatever they want.

This is as far from free-market capitalism as it gets. There is no competition, there is a monopoly and a monopsony, and there are huge barriers to entry.

Other than that it was a brilliant plan.

Because complainers need things to complain about.
