It won't be a toll, but a service-fee. The people who actually do the work of patrolling and making sure there are no shenanigans (human or other types of trafficking, for example) still deserve to be paid, and really it should be user-pays - that is: You use the strait, you pay for the service. \ Oh you'd rather pay the terror-tax to the insurance companies - because the strait was lawless? Because that is what was there before. If you don't want terror and corruption, let someone patrol and check every boat. The win is that the passage-fee is far lower than that terror-tax everyone was paying.
And really, USA should not assume to do that job of policing. Iran and Oman own the waters (oh and there is no international water there).
Well...I for one, hope that the United States imposes tolls to collect the entire amount Bath House Barry gave to Iran in those cash pallets.
There's no reason the American Taxpayer should take the hit for that.
And yes, I am a "bottom line" kind of person so I really don't care what other countries think.

Makes sense to me.
Reasonable. We paid for the road.
