Then explain why you, a resident of MD, is paying for our Big Dig in Boston? Federal income taxes pay for roads.

What are you talking about? Congress appropriated money for the Big Dig and that money came out general tax receipts.

The dollars allocated for the big dig were allocated out of the highway trust fund.
