But NH setting up its tolls just over the line from MA?

That’s been the deal for decades! (With state-owned liquor stores just over the border, luring MA residents up for cheap booze.)

We have tolls in NH too. People from New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and many other states passing through NH on the way to Maine get to help pay for the roads.

There are plenty of state liquor stores not on the freeways that can be easily accessed. The ones like Hampton and Portsmouth on I-95 are pure tourist traps. NH has no income or sales tax and so tolls are certainly a revenue source but it’s nothing like MA where every single thing in your life is taxed.
