If you're under the impression that owning a toll road would somehow be a profitable endeavor for a business, you really should spend a little time with some numbers.yeah, government numbers. and your point is exactly why there wouldn't be many highways. demand would be low due to tolls (even though people don't even think about how much of their money is taken through taxes for highways), and therefore, fewer highways. people would go with the cheaper means. whether that was biking, driving on city roads, walking or riding a train.
I do see where you're coming from and I do like the idea of everyone just living in a more dense society instead of spreading out and taking over everything. Here is my problem with pure capitalism though .... by the time a need arises, sometimes it is too late and a large group of people are going to have to suffer for a very long time.
