Do you remember the promises made by the politicians and GDOT about the toll on 400? "As soon as it's is paid off we'll stop collecting tolls" Another government lie of course, they collected tolls long after it was paid off and only ever more strident complaints by taxpayers forced them to keep their promise to end the tolls (years after they originally broke it)
Agreed on the GA 400 tolls, and kudos for Nathan Deal for ending it.
He got the message from the voters loud and clear with the failure of the 2012 T-SPLOST, as those tollbooths were a major issue causing the failure, along with way too much money allocated to MARTA heavy rail.
