Reply to comment by Loveroffinerthings in Why do we not have tolls yet? Are voters this shortsighted? by WrathWise

And I’ve lived in both : remember their roads very fondly despite way worse traffic than we ever have but clearly the people here are against better roads because they don’t believe an accounting practice / technology exists to counter the political corruption. Oh well shrugs.

As an outsider to RI, it’s clear to see that many old school RI’ers are resistant to change, or are so scared because of corruption 30/40 years ago. My road is absolutely torn up, but the town has no money to pay for it, or so they say.
