You're paying for convenience. If you can't afford it take the long route. No one's forcing you to use it and you aren't owed a cheap superhighway.

So if PA were to tax you more than 2x the next closest state, you'd move right? Bc no one is forcing you to live here.

Is someone holding a gun to your head and forcing you to take the turnpike?
 
If you can't afford it, don't use it. I don't complain that I can't afford a Ferrari.

If you can't afford it, don't use it. It's that simple. No one is forcing you to use it.
