ReplyDeleteI KEEP TELLING YOU --- ALL THEY DO is find new fines, fees, surcharges and taxes.
If they can't find new ones, they jack up the old ones.
Begin the hanging.
"We, the people" can get OUR LAND back from the clutches of the people who think THEY own it. We'll take the water back, too, from the Nazi's who think that once your boat hits the water, THEY get to make sure you are interrupted with an "inspection". No one ever asked them to do any of that. Hang them, too.
ABSOLUTELY make sure we hang them.
Trump cut their funding so they upped the prices.
ReplyDeleteIt is owned by the PUBLIC !
ReplyDeleteNothing is owned by the public. Just ask the FBI.
ReplyDeleteLOL I don't go there so make it $50!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is outrageous. We need to complain to Andy Harris and he better do something about it.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is owned by the public. And it is maintained by the public institution called government, which through social contract represents the public. And how does the government pay for maintenance/staff? Fees and taxes. So you want less taxes on EVERYONE? You get higher fees on those who use the facilities. This is actually a much better plan. Don't like the fee? Don't go.
ReplyDelete9:09 well I and my family do go there in fact for the last 30 years and we've watched the place become overrun with slob tourists from del, pa, ny and jersey who trash the beaches! so I would love to see them raise the fee to $500. then we could enjoy what was once a pristine environment again! ever been to del jersey ny beaches? well del will charge you more then assateague for out of state visitors, jersy and ny watch out for needles and medical waste washing up! that's were we are headed under current fee structure!
