Thats because people up north are slaves. Its not the price, its the audacity of having a toll.

I moved To the northeast 2 yrs ago, currently im in Philadelphia. I cant believe the toll they charge you to pass some old rickety bridge into Pennsylvania from New Jersey.

My how the tides have changed. People use to run North for freedom, now they're running south to avoid the new slavery (high taxes).

Agreed.

Personally I would have kept the toll in place for maintenance and upgrades.

Tolls only impact people who choose to use the road. That's much better than an across the board tax that hits everybody.

Why would you NOT use it? I completely fail to see your line of reasoning with this thread ... pointless.

Someone has to cover the maintenance of the bridges and roads.

It's the principle, it is not about the money. Don't hate on me for having principles.
