Looks like there's going to be a whole new rash of 'boating accidents' now.

God I despise this state some times.

They are trying to cut back the MDS boating accidents...

Va's personal property tax is starting to look less draconian.

No problem there, most people I know register in DE anyway.

Somebody has to pay for owe'maley and his communist agenda. Start flooding law makers with letters.

But just think - you're helping to provide a "balanced" approach to the State's finances.

No no ...wait...it's for the children. You want the children to have a future right? You're not a child hater are you?

(I'm probably not making you feel any better am I....)

Are you Fat Cats still refusing to pay your Fair Share?

And don't even think about registering your boat in a different state. That's CrimeThink.

Pay up "Skipper".
Those social programs aren't going to pay for themselves, and God knows the recipients never will.

Actually, I've owned several boats, all of them were registered in DE. If you predominantly launch and use your boat in DE it's perfectly legal.

Fishing Liscense are heading the same way from what I understand. I went and renewed mine @ a local shop. There is a "service fee" that you get added if you do it from your home computer with the using of your credit card (adding another % on it). The plan is for it to be only done online and I was told that they will somehow adding it your driver's liscense data base. (which will prob. require purchasing a whole new computer program system for the state that is going broke)

Unless they raise the taxes on tea, I doubt many people will complain. And even then...

wlc · Feb 17, 2012

the price of gas this summer will kill you first

sold my boat last spring, one of the best days!

BlackBart · Feb 17, 2012

As sucky as it is it's still too funny. WTF voted for the son of a bitch when they KNEW he would raise taxes every step of the way?
