CA "free"way to no longer be free...

Apparently the car pool lane (which was built using taxpayer money) on the 110 "free"way will magically turn into a toll lane starting the year after next according to a new proposal. Heard this on the news tonight - I'll see if I can dredge up a link to a textual version to post here.

I love this state - tax the crap out of the subjects... I mean "citizens" (har har) and then make them pay to use what's built with their own money. And naturally there's the gas tax to pay for the upkeep too - even on the part of the suckers that don't pay the toll and therefore don't use the extra lane.

When will the insanity end?
