What should be the roles and responsibilited for state, regional, and local agencies in planning and financing

What should be the roles and responsibilited for state, regional, and local agencies in planning and financing transportation projects and other infrastructure?

This was an issue I ran into last year in Debate Team. After research and deep thinking (I am by the way a strong proponent of small government), my debate partner and I came to the conclusion that legally and constitutionally (we became known as the Con-Law team) local governments should pay for local roads. Regional governments should pay for regional roads. State governments should pay for state roads. Federal governments should pay for interstate roads. This goes for other infrasructure as well. City buses that are owned by the government should be paid for by the city, etc. When each agency pays for itself a lot of government waste is eliminated in agencies crossing their boundaries. Hope this helps!
