>>Hey, attention is cheap, but it's not free. Still got to pay it. As we say, if you pass on the bridge, you pay on the ćuprija (which is the same, just a Turkish word for a bridge). I usually translate this "you don't pay the bridge toll, but pay to cross the river",

>Actually: The River Severn estruary separates Wales from southern England and there's a huge long bridge. You pay a toll of £7 entering Wales but none returning. The Welsh like to joke that you pay to enter their country but getting into England is free. (You could get in without paying but it would mean a detour of 100s of miles around the estuary).

We had such an exit tax in Sloba's times - don't remember exactly how much it was, maybe about $10 per person per exit. For a while there was a story that it was actually bail, but then the trial never came up and we never found out whether we'd get the money back if we showed up.
