What would happen if we liquidated the PFD, paid it out to all the people whose money it actually is, and had to start from scratch with no convenient pool of money to use? I'd like to see that happen. If our government is so incompetent it has to steal from the people, it deserves to not be able to fund itself. What happens to states that simply completely run out of money to do anything?

It seems that DOT has plenty of money to continue its big projects no matter what the people have to say about it, so I'd say start there.
