Texas dept of transportation caught red handed
In the news, tx dot was busted pulling a fast one! They have been infamous for grossly porked out pork barrel spending of gas tax money allotted for the road system. They used technicalities to get away with it, such as putting in a multi-million parking lot in close access to a college, on private land owned by a good ole boy, so he could charge parking fees and make a bundle, their justification was that cars can drive on it.....sooooo our tax money paid for a private lot to be paved, and then we are charged to park on it!! what a crock.....the latest thing is you can't put tolls on roads paid for by federal funding. They are paid for by our gas tax. Tx dot wanted to refund or just decline to utilize the money that is allotted to build these roads, so they could then claim "hey these roads werent were not paid for by federal funds! We can now toll them!" Thats crazy, thats double taxation, thats not allowed.. Texans have been fighting the toll road monster for a good time now, and tx dot is all about the money, and continue to pull bs stunts like this, Gee thanks Govenor Rick Perry, look what your cronies are doing, and how much are you getting kicked back??? We the PEOPLE ARE WATCHING....CLEAN YOUR HOUSE...OR LOSE YOUR HOUSE COME ELECTION DAY..........a pissed off ....riff
