Lego My Transportation Funding

Reprinted from my blog at fredericksburg.com.

The region has huge plans for building new roads and not enough money.  Each locality talks about tax hikes but none of them want to pull that trigger, especially since the state recently increased taxes for transportation.

A local character once said adding more roads to decrease traffic congestion was like getting a second dog because of a flea problem.  I think it’s a cool analysis, but I don’t think I agree with it.  You can’t decrease gridlock by dipping commuters into a poisonous dip.  Hmmmm….or maybe you can.

And honestly I just wanted to draw Legos.
