The Phantom Tollbooth

So on Boston.com there are Readers Reactions to talks of a toll hike.

The Topic:
A proposal to increase toll prices gained momentum today as officials discussed methods to dig the roadway out of a deep financial hole.What are your thoughts on the potential toll hike?
The hike would mean an increase from $1.25 to $2.25 at Allston-Brighton and Weston tolls and a hike by $5, from $3.50 to $8.50 for tunnels.
Would you support this hike? If not, would you consider using the commuter rail instead?
My favorite answer:
- How about some Quid Pro Quo? I'm fine with raising the tolls BUT also eliminate all speed traps.
*Does that make sense to anyone??
And, who remembers the book? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Phantom_Tollbooth
