I'll put a bar code on my kayak or car and let them wand me whenever I
wonder into their "area".

But don't bug me with these million fees. You have to carry cash and wad up
dollars and stick them in little slots and employ people to empty and create
these canisters. And employ more people to look for people who did not put
the money in.

Taxing is more efficient, but the current mood in Oregon and Washington
state is not to put up with that.

I am also a kayak addict with lots in my stable. But I can only kayak one at
a time. Of course, we go after the nicotine addicts with taxes so perhaps it
is fair they come after me.
