 People say the same thing over and over: "But we need tolls, or ownership!"  Untrue.  The margin can accrue from moderate financing costs added by developer, efficiencies, front loading payments, and maintenance.
 
 No ownership needed.

If it isn't, how does it solve the problem that Republicans don't want to spend government money on these things because the Koch brothers and Sheldon Adelsons of the world don't want them to?
