    I took a ‘no tolls’ route through Oklahoma on a road trip yesterday and passed through several basically abandoned towns. (Every damn one had a 30mph speed limit with a cop hanging out at the sign to hand out tickets, too.)

    I feel like we’re already there, Mark.

      How do you think those towns are funded?

      Ticket out of towners knowing they’ll never show up to court.

      Speeding tickets are literally the only way those towns can afford any cops.

    “No it won’t. It will be the best deal small red towns will ever see. You lovely people won’t believe the tremendous wealth that is coming. And if it doesn’t and you end up starving and homeless it is because of Biden.”

    They’re all going to keep voting red next time, right? It’ll all just figure itself out if we keep going far enough?
