Losing sovereignty? To who? Toll road operators. You must be joking. American companies can bid to run toll roads if they like. It's called open competition, getting the best deal for the taxpayers and free trade. Will your next post be about the black helicopters you see flying over your house or maybe how best to put tin foil on your head to keep the CIA satellites from reading our thoughts?

Who is funding Delegate Hamilton to shill for these foreign companies?
