Should all roads be toll roads? Non-drivers shouldn't have to pay for your automobile use, especially if you're going to insist that other forms of transportation not be subsidized. And even beyond the "whacko" environmental benefits of taking cars off the road, taking them off the road reduces traffic for those who do drive.
