If you are creating a private fund with no government funding, then I’d love to help. Voluntary solutions are best. If this is more government open space where we are going to take tax dollars extracted at gun point from unhappy taxpayers, count me among the opposition. The hallmark of a bad idea is if you can’t convince people to support it voluntarily. “Tin cupping” or “passing the hat” good; taxes bad.
Yes, yes, I KNOW Open Space is GOOD for me. Yes, Mommy Government, I’ll take the medicine that you think I need. And, of course, Father State, you’ll take all the money you need, or give me a good whuppin, and I’ll shut up ’cause you’ll give me what I need to teach me some respect for my betters. :-(
