And let me guess... the money would go to the general fund instead of to benefit the groups it taxed...

Absolutely. And being RI, it will be used to fund initiatives that are diametrically opposed. |

when RI made the big jump in the shellfish license fee ..we were told that we would see the increase of monies going to help the shellfish industry …..… more transplants were the big [thing] . it went down & it,took a few years to find out it went to the General fund . .
We get/got paid .10 per pound or to make it easy $5 a bag & we loaded some large boats that carried & dumped them . along with a few paid one where were volunteer ones …& the diggers went out in force for free because it was there benefit ^ also a ball to to bar short your bull rakes in seconds & long minutes .
when I was in my prime & still one of the few tongers left _ I dug 62 bags in 5' of water /ya can only guess how well the high liners did .
yet like everything else / there is always guys that just watch . the digging & the follow the boats to watch were they were dumped ………… don,t have to worry about that much anymore …………………………….  |
ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!

Every RI Fishing Guide, Club, Trap Shoot, Hunting Guide, etc, will tack on 7% to their bill and mail it into Gina Raimondo.
She is using taxes to (attempt to) persuade people to stop processes she does not like. |

Cannot happen. 2 term limit in RI for Gov. She's done.
Worst Governor that ever existed. Stupid, corrupt and simply wants to line her own pockets. Has no empathy for the general population.
She stopped the COLA in the pension system when she was state Treasurer and clandestinely put in a little clause in one of the "investments" she fostered that pays her $125K out of the pension fund FOREVER!! |
