Congress Approving Toll Roads

What does it mean?

A blurb up on the Drudge Report mentioned that toll interstates could become more common.

Seems that the House passed an amendment to a highway bill that would allow states to establish tolls on federal interstate highways. The reasoning behind it is that the federal gas tax (1) is not doing enough to keep the current road network at their proper level of maintenance and (2) not generating the funds necessary for the construction on new roads where they are needed.

Somehow, this looks like it is related to the discussion of the Super-Slab. I’m curious as to how the Salazar Boys are involved….
