      So you think the people using a common good and doing the most damage to it should not pay for that use? Why should the poor people without cars, the people who aren’t able to bike or drive, pay for your visit?

      Because that’s what our taxes are for. That’s what we’re paying for, the commons. Drivers licenses, car registrations, etc., yeah sure, I can see why we pay for that.

          IMO, they should have made out of state people pay more and Washington State residents pay nothing, like they do in Hawaii.

              I guess we’re going to disagree. We were poor when this law was implemented. It was pretty hard on us.

              Edit, btw, this is what we pay too, lol.

              Tourists have to buy day passes or a discovery pass in Washington. Day passes are $11.50/day.

      … You are the one who jumped from:

      Cougar attacks are a legitimate concern for hikers and bikers.

      (which is absolutely a true statement)

      to…:

      Oh yeah? 10,000 bicyclists get attacked by Cougars each year in National Parks?

      SOURCE PLEASE!

      …

      Bro you astonishingly hyperbolized and strawmanned pele and then got mad about shit you made up in your head that they didn’t say.

      This is the most twitter brained ‘discussion style’ I’ve seen on lemmy in a while.
