pay lanes in the times

good article in the NYTimes on toll roads, carpools and traffic congestion. I for one support toll roads, though I think excluding carpools from their fees is essential. I also think a higher gas tax would accomplish much the same, though that problem will solve itself as prices for gas tend to become more expensive than milk.

I'm quite glad the point out the OC freeways were bailed out by the gov't and imply it was profitable for the private owners to be bailed out (the OC, for the record, is moronic when it comes to economically reasoned government, they're Republicans in a way only the OC can be Republican - without any regard to the so called economics principles (those that at least in theory underly Reganomics) they all swear by)
