CDOT to sell our roads without citizen approval.

[Rabid]

Privatization is not socialism or communism but a very large step to freedom. You should be happy that things are leaving the governments control and being transferred private hands.

Do you think they will lower our fuel taxes if the highways were privatized? Lets just answer that, no they will not. I do not want my wallet getting picked by two hands rather then one. There are two things i do not want privatized right now. That being our infrastructure and our safety, be it police, fire, and even the air traffic controllers the R's have been after for decades to name a few. If we can cut costs, zero out our taxes in that area and improve on what we already have then it is time to take care of those concerns but i do not see it yet. This is our government taking care of this without public say, what a stupid idea. Why not open it up to bidding after we the people decide what we think needs to be done while they lease our land from us. Why can't we the people determine fines if the winner of the contract can not complete their work on time with the least inconvenience. The road to privatization needs to be lead by use not a bunch of special interest groups that control our money grubbing officials.
