Mississippi contemplating TOLL ROADS
State officials say we need to raise more money for road repairs.

Whats more charming? Rustic Roads in need of repair or Toll Booths?

3. I choose option C....
More funds for Haley Barbour to squander....

They're talking about that here, too- one of the ideas for a Baton Rouge loop is to make it a toll freeway.

11. I prefer the Delaware method
Toll rolls are for the loser who can't figure out their way around it (out-of-staters) while the state of Delaware has low property taxes and no sales tax

10. Actually, it'll only be on the roads leading out of state ...
Because once you leave, they know you'll never come back so they've got to get it while they can!
