There's a way to fix tolls
have it be a per-day charge, not a per toolbooth charge
the whole East Coast uses the same toll system
work pays for my tolls
so I abuse the shit out of them
but when I drive to PA or NY, I incur something like $40 in tolls each way
DC tolls are ~$10, spread out over a few checkpoiints, PA is $15, and then NJ is $10
you can't avoid NY tolls Bio
the bridges
are the toll checkpoints
San Fran is also terrible
entering the city is a $10 charge
fuck that bopit
it screws over so many people
oh lol,
I thought you meant the city tax
get rid of 80% of the government
honestly, at the federal level it isn't even that bad
state and local government overreach is what's really cancerous
tollboth workers make $80k a year in Massachusetts
there's a lottery system to hand out the jobs Bopit
because everyone wants one
I have a cousin, who got one of the slots
and he had been trying every year for ~10 years
since he graduated school
New England has a long legacy of nepotism
and all government jobs are ways to ensure insular communities remain taken care of
it's all fake automation though
nothing new has really been automated in the last 20 years
