Exactly this is just another way to squeeze citizens.

If you consider how much we pay in taxes, as Americans we really don't get bang for the buck.

Our taxes are hidden behind sales taxes, service charges, tolls, included in fuel, it really adds up.

The toll thing is especially egregious IMO, considering there had been very little investment in this type of infrastructure and now we have to pay because the people who mishandled funds are long gone.
