Reply to comment by PabloX68 in Why is the Masspike the only toll road in Mass? by bostexa
Comparisons from different data sets are not relevant here. do me a favor, though, if you think they are, feel free to actually show me the numbers. Like I asked!
What is your solution? How are you going to fund the reconstruction or maintenance of many many many more miles of roadway in Massachusetts than in New Hampshire?

Here's another example.

And I said PER MILE road spending. Now you're pointing out that MA has "many many more". No shit.

Did you read my comment? Many more people. So many more drivers and much more wear & tear. Per mile is not the relevant statistic here. If you actually did this for a living you would know. I do.

You engineer roads for a living? Do tell.
Sorry but the traffic levels don't change the instant you cross the border. Bring your Prius up to 80mph and drive that stretch I pointed to and tell me the MA part isn't worse.

Lmao. I don’t drive a Prius, but you are showing your ass with that comment and your sources. Move to NH if you like it so much. It’s a much better place for libertarians who are so biased against the government that they can’t evaluate evidence appropriately.
And actually, I do plenty of work around roadways design, evaluation, permitting, maintenance, upgrades etc. You don’t have to engineer roads to know how the are funded and constructed. In fact, an engineer knows nothing about funding mechanisms. I do that exact work for a living. Yup. Did you think I would prove it and doxx myself? Lol
You are a walking Dunning Kruger effect.
I hope you get a chance to move to a place where you will be happier. I can’t waste any more time educating you when you don’t want to learn anything. Bye!

If you can look at roads in MA and the money we spend on them and think it's all good, you've clearly been brainwashed.
Realize you doing a shitty job costs normal people money and puts them in danger. Sleep well.

Oh! Another biased source! Reason.org is a libertarian think tank. That is not a reputable source. At all.
PabloX68 t1_j8k88wy wrote
I know exactly who they are. That doesn't mean their numbers are wrong here. How about you find a source that says MA isn't among the least efficient, highest spenders here?
MOGicantbewitty t1_j8k9eo5 wrote
That’s exactly what it means. Their analysis is biased.

Link to another source that counters it. How hard is that?

Nope. You didn’t do your job first, I’m not obligated to engage with somebody who is calling me brainwashed. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😫 Bye!
