Toll Roads

It looks like some senators would like roads to be privately funded.They are citing budgetary problems as a reason for it. They don't want to burden the taxpayers with the costs. It seems to me, that roads are one of the fundamental things that our tax money should go for. If we have budget problems, that should be worked out by cutting other non-fundamental services that the government provides but shouldn't. At the end of the day, the citizens must still pay for the road, but our representatives get out of their responsibility of providing constituent service, and fixing budgetary problems.
