Comment: I'm starting to wonder if some of you are capable of critical

thinking.

Very simplified answer to a problem you seem to have trouble grasping.. In the real world, the cost of roads spread out amongst the nation, is less expensive on each individual, even IF government makes costs rise, than it would be if say.. 10 people had to pay for their stretch of the road.. which would include.. building it and upkeep.

Have you ever had to pay for a private road to get asphalted, built and maintained? I wanted to place asphalt on my driveway.. the lowest bid was 8000.

That's a relatively small driveway. Now try to scale that up for a 1 mile private road that might have 5 houses on it.

This is kind of what I've been saying... people don't take things to their conclusion because it's easier to spout rhetoric than it is to think things through.
