Reply to Question- Why does Mass charge out of staters 3x the price to camp at Mass state parks? I understand slightly higher rates, but 3x? Come on. by Figwit_
Rhode Island charges 2x for out of staters (I am a MA resident who lives close to RI camps) What do you think is an appropriate “slightly higher rate”? Not trying to be antagonistic seriously what are you thinking would work? Would 2x like RI be ok?

I always thought excise tax should be lower on new cars and should rise based on the age of the car. Seems like an older car would cause more wear on the roads than that of a new car

If you’re in the Greater Lowell area, The Wish Project is my go-to. The work they do for the community is incredible and I have come to know the staff there well from donating clothes and other goods over the years.

I don't know where you are in Massachusetts, but Second Glance in Gloucester is a thrift shop operated by The Open Door, our local food pantry. All the revenue from the second-hand items sold there fund the work of the pantry, and Second Glance also provides non-food household items to individuals and families in need. I can't speak highly enough of the team of The Open Door and Second Glance for all the great work they do in the communities they serve.
I know they go out and pick up donations sometimes, but I think it is going to depend on how much you've got and where you are. If you aren't around our area, there may be something similar near you. Still on the North Shore, but I know that Beverly has thrift store that follows a similar model. I'd go with any of these in order to support your community/communities near you over some of the big names.

To keep outsiders out. They want the sites to be cheap for residents at prices subsidized by outsiders. Same with university tuition

You really have no idea what a boot licker is and are clearly just throwing that term around as a meme so have fun with that. Lol of course a lawyer would tell you that! What he doesnt tell you is that its going to cost you more to consult with him the it is then to just pay the well deserved ticket. Your youtube education is showing. Read a fucking book dipshit.

I never said I didn't clear my sidewalks - I do. I'm saying that physically it sucks to do it. Why doesn't anybody get that!

Perhaps simplerecycling, depending where you are. We've used them and it's a snap.

Féria used to have that color (Starry Night.) Was most popular in the late 90’s-early aughts but I’m sure copycat colors of it are around.

But this is tourism money. The state doesn't want tourism dollars to come in?
