I'm currently a bit out of the loop for various reasons, but do you mean that existing roads (presumably already paid for) are having tolls introduced, or that new roads are being contructed on a for-profit toll basis? The analysis is obviously quite different.

Why no interest in the fairness toll roads? We here in Austin, TX are getting toll roads out the wazoo, to put it delicately, and I need some help, any of which would be appreciated. Bill
