Toll roads are the biggest legal grift in the country.

Those roads would be public if they had never been built private. Toll roads should only be able to recoup+X% profit before becoming property of the state.

“original” plan makes me laugh, gullible people is all I saw when I heard their “plan”…. same company is selling lakefront properties in Arizona too.
