I actually think she is missing an important point. There is no right that anyone has to extort money from others to build streets in the first place.

So it becomes more complex when you have a government extorting money from the citizens and using it to build roads. It is quite reasonable for the citizens whose money has thus been extorted to demand that if it will be used to build roads that then groups of those citizens can apply for a permit to block those streets in order to protest.

Whether people can do that should be up to the private owners of the roads.

Rich liberals are going to vote for lefties.  But poor liberals that are suffering the results of those policies that hurt the poor are often switching to the right.

Hopefully it makes up for all the new support for the Democrats due to the Republicans hard line on abortion.
