This week we are going to examine substitute goods, highways and a bit about how we pay for highways.
Assignment Instructions:
- Watch the video above.
- What are the advantages and disadvantages of toll roads for drivers? Why might an individual prefer to pay a toll than to use a free road?
- Are there other ways to pay for highways other than tolls or higher motor fuel taxes? (Oregon is researching an alternative user fee system, you may wish to search for that information.)
- Are there environmental aspects to the use of toll roads versus free roads?
- Post your views to the discussion board and refer to at least two different concepts from this week’s Chapters. Please remember to use CAPITAL LETTERS.
