The people of California already own the State Parks. The people of California already pay taxes for the upkeep of the State Parks. That does not stop Progressives from using the Parks as an excuse to make it harder on the poor and middle class to use the parks.
"Even with recent hefty park fee hikes, a battle between supporters of state funded parks and anti-tax groups resumed in the Legislature yesterday, over an upcoming ballot initiative that would add $18 to every vehicle registered in the state, in order to fund state parks."
This is just a cynical approach to harm folks who are poor and middle class by raising the cost of owning a vehicle--even if you do not go to the State Parks.
Democrats see an opportunity to tax at the drop of an idea--tax for more police, tax for more firefighters, tax for more libraries, tax for more schools, tax for water--and yes tax for Parks.
The real question is what they do with the money from the sales tax, the income tax, the corporation tax, the property tax, the vehicle tax, school bond money, water bond money, transportation bond money, etc.
They need to chill out--the people are broke and the State is in a Depression--use what you got and leave us alone for more. We do not have it.
