The Toledo Blade editorialized on Michigan’s roads crisis, saying that not fixing the roads now will cost Michigan heavily:

Not spending this money will cost the state heavily in the long run. Michigan residents pay, on average, $81 a year more than Ohioans for car repairs, mostly because of the condition of the roads they use. As Mr. Snyder noted in his recent State of the State message, fixing roads now will cost far less than deferring maintenance indefinitely.
