"....the road would be a godsend. who's interests are greater and who can 
decide that? noone, so how can society progress?"

    Depends what you consider progress to be...

    If you think having a highway run though your yard is progress, if you 
think having heavy-metal and radioactive waste in your backyard is 
progress, then by all means have an authoritarian govt. slapping you 
around to tell you what to do...

    Progress doesn't neccessarily mean more of xyz (industry, roads, 
consumer goods) at least in my honest opinion.  Read Peter's Principle and 
you'll see what progress means in today's society...
