When McDonell ran for Governer here he said he was going to put tolls on the NC boarder. I think its still a possability.

Ive been in Richmond for about 10 years and never dealt with tolls before i came here. I too hate them, but i think normally they are fair. Its an excise tax, but excise taxes are normally flat taxes so you can make the case that tolls hurt poorer people equally more (which i think is fair). Adding a "fee" to that hurts the poor even more.
