Reply to comment by Er3bus13 in Does anyone else notice how often people road rage on the turnpike? by [deleted]

"You don't have to buy that thing you're raging out about costing too much."
"Boot licker!"

 
You people have some bizarre brain damage when it comes to the turnpike. You aren't owed free / cheap roads everywhere. If you don't like what the product costs, don't buy it.

It's a road that bisects the whole state. It was also paid for by national funds. You know they same nation we pay taxes into. I just want the money we are paying in for gas taxes to actually pay for the roads. Second highest in the nation. But yea my priorities are fucked I reckon https://www.statista.com/statistics/509649/us-states-with-highest-gas-tax-and-prices/#:~:text=California%20has%20the%20highest%20tax,14%20U.S.%20cents%20in%202021.

Gas tax money doesn't go towards the turnpike. They're entirely separate from PennDOT.

 
No one owes you cheap or free roads. If you don't like what the product costs, don't buy it.

Do you rage out regularly about other things you can't afford?
 
The Turnpike is self-supporting. Your tax dollars don't go towards it. Quit crying about it already.
