The Importance of Funding Infrastructure through Tolls

The speaker reflects on the importance of funding infrastructure projects through tolls. They highlight that historically, infrastructure like bridges and tunnels were built using tolls, which eventually paid off the debt and allowed the infrastructure to remain.
