WSDOT is so incompetent. It's absolutely infuriating, and definitely not helping the political divide between eastern and western Washington.

The very urban portions of the coastal areas pay most of the taxes, while the rest of the rural parts pay a much smaller portion. Unfortunately, the rural parts (basically anything not directly within x miles of the coast) see this as a massive waste for something that won't benefit them.

The implications of this are far-reaching and incredibly polarizing for our state. Not good.
