Truth be told, i'm somewhat on the fence about tolls. Charges the actual users vs 'everybody at random'. Generally I'm against them tho, as it tends to punish lower wage earners a lot more than higher wage earners. The economics of it tend to skew richer people to move to areas with more tolls tho, as they take that cost into account as a smaller portion of their overall budget.
My problem with these new Texas toll roads is that they're subsidized with public money but privatized so ntta keeps the cash. Classic tactics of privatizing profit while making losses a public debt.
