A Basic Income Should Be the Next Big Thing

Could you compare Toll Roads and Population Density?

Then, when you realize that toll roads are correlated with population density, perhaps you could realize that toll roads are then only also correlated with politics of state, not caused by them.

For example: If liberals loved toll roads, then California, Oregon and Washington would be full of them. But only the NorthEast is, right?

So your hypothesis falls apart here anyway.

No, my hypothesis is correct. West coast liberals are nothing like east coast liberals. East coast liberals are authoritarians; west coast liberals are not. There's a reason all the states which have legalized marijuana are west coast states, and not northeast ones. This also happens to correlate with toll roads, and it's not a coincidence.

BTW, the population density of metro areas in California is higher than most places in the northeast.
