Is it? How else would you fund any long term project that has benefits in the future? I mean, think about it. If you have a project that has a $1000 benefit every year, why shouldn't the recipient of this benefit pay for it?

Do you think it would be justified to tear up all the roads after we are done with them so that we don't leave anyone with debt?
