I am not suggesting govt. regulation of roads. You assumed it .

then my original argument stands, and it remains highly likely that road owners would impose unreasonable tolls

regardless, "it's possible" is not a very strong argument. also, there are typically not multiple roads leading to the...

ur assumption that all roads would be owned by 1 entity is about as strong as an argument as assuming 1 company sells all gasoline

i never assumed that. how did you imply that?

I did not imply you assumed it, I compared to the rediculous assumption that a "necessary" good for cars would beget a monopoly.

...i pointed out that public utilities are govt granted monopolies.
