Dante, I'm not sure what point you're trying to make other than "I don't like companies being successful".

In a competitive environment people are free to select whatever provider they like for goods and services.  If they are willing to pay more for better service they can do so.

As for the 407, I've used it and it is hugely convenient for certain trips.  I know many people find it to be well worth the cost.  Others might not find the cost worthwhile and they are in no way obligated to use the 407.  Everywhere the 407 goes there is another highway near by that goes to roughly the same place.

Also, keep in mind that we didn't have to pay a dime to nearly double the length of the 407 after it was leased, we haven't had to pay for any of the upgrades or maintenance and we don't even have to pay for policing the highway (or, more accurately, the 407ETR pays the OPP to cover the full cost of policing the highway).

All this would otherwise be paid using higher taxes.
