It will end up like the tolls keep raising the fee because they need to allocate money in other places in the state not for what it was originally intended.

They have a new improved system were they do call fishermen and interview them...they also do intercepts at launch ramps etc...the guy was at the canal last week doing interviews...and other places

They use mathematics like marketing math or economics where extrapolations are made based ont he interviews.

My position is not that the whole thing reeks of federal gov't pick pocketing...that it is...the point is if we do not support somehting we can swallow we will see our money replace the tolls on the mass pike...seriously...bitching will get us no where...the us congress...Kennedy, Kerry, Frank, Dlehunt..etc passed this two years ago and are getitng away scott free on this one
