I was resigned to this years ago - like Flap said we knew it was coming. We can all sigh "woe is me" and be pissed or we can figure out what we want from this tax. You can bet individual states will be jumping to beat the feds to the money. Start thinking what you want the money to go for. We did a study here in Rhody a few years back - the state asked us what bennies we wanted from a license - we mentioned among other things free access to all state parks that charged a fee (Example Charlestown Breachway). They said it would be incorporated in the license law that a license gets you into the parks. Just one example but you can see what I'm getting at. We can all be pissed and get nothing or be mad and try and get the best deal for us. Our choice - Think positive.
