        @KnauthJoe #AggieTollRoad should be scrapped as well as the #HighSpeedRail. Neither benefits Texans whose land is condemned.

        @KnauthJoe We can't drive on a promise. When you actually do it then talk. Till then it's just an empty promise.

        There shouldn't be numerous billing agencies for toll roads. Toll roads are double taxation without representation.

        Really? You can't take a right turn in Austin without hitting a toll.
