I believe it is a good thing, but it should have been approved by the voters. Not created in the illegitimate manner that it was. A very unorthodox way to serve the public. I have mixed feeling about how this was done.

It matters not hoe this was approved. MODOT will fritter the money away, just as they have their entire existence.

The tax hike has plenty of opponents and similar measures have been rejected by Missouri voters several times.

We should be using Lotto money in a better manner.

MODOT will waste the money just as they have all their career. MODOT is a money pit and giving them more money is a waste of money time and effort.

Most people already drive 75 MPH, at least. Trust the people.

Drivers are already driving 5 to 10 miles over the current limits so if it's increased I'm pretty sure they'll exceed the new limits.

The Democratic Party is pushing hateful rhetoric, like calling Trump supporters "fascist" and "nazi" to drive people to violence and cause a color revolution. This must stop.

Trump has called Democrats “scum,” “vermin,” “animals” and “enemies of the people.” When U.S. Rep. Pelosi’s 82-year-old husband was bludgeoned with a hammer by a deranged man, Trump joked about it.

'This Is A Both Sides Issue,' Says Side That Shot President Trump, Assassinated Charlie Kirk, Tried To Assassinate Kavanaugh, Tried To Shoot Trump Again, Shot Steve Scalise, Firebombed Governor Shapiro, Tried To Shoot Trump A Third Time..." Babylon Bee - but true.

They are acting like that, yes.
