Public roads, projects and bridges should not have toll on them

If a public project uses taxpayers dollars to fund the project. Tolls should not be allowed. Why should people have to pay for a project when they have paid for it already. This is double taxation. A lot of Eastern states have toll roads. Many states have put tolls on public roadways to generate revenue. The idea if taxpayers pay for a project they should not have to pay for it again. In Alaska tell lawmakers you want the Whittier tunnel to be free of charge and we need to get rid of Knik Bridge and Toll Authority this bridge should be for free. In my home state in Washington State they are talking about electronic tolls on State Route 520 and already have electronic tolls on Narrow Bridge on State Route 16 from Tacoma to Gig Harbor. Come legislator do not put a toll on this. People in Spokane, Centralia, Bellingham and Olympia paying for this road why should they pay again. You tell your legislator no toll on public roads now. Someone in Washington State please come up with a citizen initiative to stop tolls on public projects if you want to toll. Here is an idea you socialist morons in the Washington State Legislature sell the bridges to the highest bidder then they get to name them. The Narrows Bridge could be called the Boeing Bridge and the Evergreen Floating Bridge could be called the Microsoft Bridge. Come Boeing and Microsoft you have been helping in the Washington State economy you can do it again. Once you sell the bridges to private industry tell can hire people to maintain the bridge and if they want to charge people to cross them that is there right. In Alaska have the Alaska Railroad buy the Whittier Tunnel and Knik Bridge Crossing and call it the Wally Hickel Memorial Bridge or the Bill Egan Memorial Bridge.
