They are taking away our open highways

[woo me with science]

196. +1 The history of toll roads is a history of lying,

and Third Way policy is Republican policy repackaged by infiltrators for the Democratic Party.

We are lied to and told that they are necessary, that there is no other way to fund the roads. Never mind that we were told the same about the gas taxes we pay. Never mind that tolls are a vicious, regressive assault on the poor. The poor end up shafted both ways.

We are lied to and told that the tolls will end when the roads are paid for, but they never go away.

We are lied to and told that the tolls will be controlled, but they always increase.

We are lied to and told that government will control the tolls, but private corporations always profit.

It is no accident that the swarming propaganda for tolls here comes from the very same small group who post here full-time in support of every corporate Democrat and every predatory policy pushed by the Third Way. These are corporate Republican arguments, adopted by the Koch-bankrolled Third Way.

It's propaganda.
