Default The effects of a road congestion tax

"Oliver Keating" wrote in message ...
But of course free market forces only work if people are charged for the
services (ie roads) that they use.


But, of course, free market forces only work if there's competition,
not a gang of armed thugs charging motorists an arm and a leg to drive
while stealing large chunks of the roads for their cronies in the bus
industry.

I agree with you, though: all roads should be privatised and all
motoring taxes should be abolished. Let private companies run the
roads instead.
