New Jersey Turnpike

Sign to remind all of you who your fascist dictator is

The New Jersey Turnpike is a toll road in that space between New York, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. Built during the rule of King Lorenzo II, it was constructed to squeeze as much money out of non-New Jersey residents trying to flee to the less shitty cities of New York City, Philadelphia, and Baltimore. New Jersey gets 80% of its tax revenue from the Turnpike, compared to only 10% for the Garden State Parkway.

Toll collection system

The New Jersey Turnpike boasts a state-of-the-art toll collection system. There are tolls at the entrance and exit to every single interchange on the turnpike, making sure there is no way to cheat the system (unless you go behind the service areas and through the back gates and find your way from there). The Turnpike was created with few exits just to make sure once people get onto the Turnpike, there is little chance for them to escape, thus forcing everyone to pay an extra dollar or two to reach their destinations. There are service areas on the Turnpike so New Jersey can earn extra revenue from people buying gas or food, so even though the toll may appear to be $6.45, New Jersey's really getting a lot more money than that.

Implementation of E-ZPass

New Jersey saw an irresistible chance to monetize their assets with the creation of E-ZPass. With the implementation of E-ZPass, New Jersey would earn extra money from fining people $120 for driving through an E-ZPass lane without an E-ZPass tag. Recently, high speed E-ZPass lanes have been added just to insult everyone without E-ZPass, and get more confused tourists to drive through the E-ZPass lanes. New Jersey also gets money from people with E-ZPass tags having to pay "maintenance" fees.

Dictator Corzine's sinister plan to raise tolls

In 2006, Corzine and his minions proposed a toll increase that would raise the price for travelling the whole Turnpike from $6.45 to $102.92 by 2012. The plan would give New Jerseyans so much money that residents would be paying negative taxes. Unsurprisingly, Corzine quickly cancelled his plan due to opposition from 4% of New Jersey residents. Instead, Corzine snuck an increase on the price for toilet paper.

Conspiracy to force non-residents to pay as much as possible

New Jersey ensures that travelers pay as much money as possible for traveling the Turnpike. Have you ever wondered why there is no direct connection between Interstate 95 in Pennsylvania and the New Jersey Turnpike? This is a conspiracy to force people to use the Turnpike, whether they like it or not. If New Jersey can afford to have those signs thanking people for riding the New Jersey Turnpike, then they could easily afford to make an interchange between the real I-95 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike Extension.

New Jersey also pours money into spreading propaganda. Their main focus is making motorists believe their tolls are necessary to maintain the road, and that their money is actually being put to good use. Because of heavy brainwashing, some people have even just accepted that tolls are a natural part of life, and believe nothing can be done about it. Well, actually, something can be done about the tolls, but not if people have that attitude. The tolls can even be removed completely one day if enough people protest the government, but at this rate, there's a better chance of them being tripled increased within a month.

Did you know that entering New Jersey is free, but it costs up to 8$ to exit New Jersey? Well, the only way thay can be possible is because of some kind of conspiracy. It costs nothing to cross the Raritan River without using the Garden $tate Parkway, but it costs money to cross the Delaware River and Hudson River. Some theorists believe that New Jersey created the Delaware River and Hudson River just to have another excuse to tax people.

Ways in which New Jersey wants you to believe your toll is being used
