Found this . And according to an online inflation calculator: What cost $0.35 in 1979 would cost $1.10 in 2007. Guess our ROI on gov't projects is about 1/6th as good in 2008.

From Wikipedia: "The bridge was built as a four-lane toll bridge in 1963 to provide easy access from Seattle to Eastside communities such as Bellevue, Kirkland, and Redmond. It was the second bridge to cross Lake Washington, the first being the Lake Washington Floating Bridge, built in 1940 as part of U.S. Route 10, later part of Interstate 90, which at its construction was the largest floating structure ever built. Tolls were lifted from the Evergreen Point Bridge in 1979, and the wide area where tolls were collected is now used for bus stops." Anybody Seattlites here know what the toll was before it was removed in 1979?

the $7 tolls will wind up with the same result, trust me.

private industry can pay quite well for roads lick sack, contrarian

let's see: gov't sponsored day care? no. health care? no. welfare? no. food stamps? no. subsidized housing? no. nope. it's about what gov't is supposed to pay for.

fuck that. at this rate a new Boston Tea Party is long overdue

The population grew, and the roads could no longer support the capacity needed. Yes, government should fund it OUT OF EXISTING TAXES. More people = more revenue - what the fuck are they spending tax dollars on? And as for "encouraging" - it's not government's job to tell people how to live, it's the people's job to tell the government how to work for THEM, the PEOPLE. You know, government OF the people BY the people and most importantly FOR the people.

big government? listen, I believe in a limited government, as I've stated before, and certainly one role of said government - however big or small - is to BUILD AND MAINTAIN THE FUCKING INFRASTRUCTURE. our taxes should cover that first and foremost.

No, no! A tunnel! We need a tunnel under the lake. The technology is available NOW. no, first we need a study. well, raise taxes first - for the tunnel, and pay for the study. then squander the money raised on anything but their intended purpose. then cancel the tunnel project. fuck yeah!

again putting words in my mouth and trying to state my positions. you are about as lame as Kevbone today.

ty sam sukin syn

bednyj prole - kak tipicheskij amerikanskij idiot, on tol'ko znayet odin yazyk, da ne lyubit' eto priznat, khoch delayet vid, chto on chelovek mirovoj.

when ARE you moving to Europe, anyways? You've only been "threatening" for 4+ years.

prole is smoking porter's hog!

pot. kettle. black.

you will not get rationalizations from us

ja ne gyeloboi suka. navernoe on pederast

pravda. schital by prole pizdoj zhopoj glaznoj

we are already taxed. if we need a new bridge, fund it with existing resources/taxes. that's a first priority, not the other shit our money is squandered on where the fuck is our ROI on all those transportation initiatives, anyways? no accountability.

prole would've pissed himself out of joy at that opportunity That soldier would have skull stomped him for being a turncoat pussy anyhow. a ne lyubil by ego kak komunyak-zemlyak?

prole would've pissed himself out of joy at that opportunity

I want, I want, I want I want ROI for my taxes? fuck yeah!

then they could make one line for bikes only.

I do, fuckwad. and they should cover things, at a minimum, like, um, infrastructure. that should be obvious even to a shit like you.

lame
