If you also want to take government regulation out of the mix, we would have 8 foot wide lanes, no shoulders, no lighting, possibly no striping, and advertising everywhere. Ramps would probably be about a 7% grade.While I don't see how private enterprise would be possible running the highways, that said, your scenario isn't a given either. While yes, there would probably be advertising everywhere and tolls(how else would it spin a profit to make it possible for private sector), there is no evidence whatsoever that there would be no safety considerations on these roads making them "8 foot wide, no striping, or dangerous grades on ramps, or striping". Most private business has standards of safety, and yes, perhaps some regulation would be required too. For example, safety features were put in cars, long before Obama took over the car companies. Food business has safety standards, etc. The same would be true for Highway in private. |
