We all spend tons of money every year, and the state always gets its cut in the form of excise tax. Many of us also pay property taxes. We register vehicles, buy boats, etc, etc, etc.
The taxes we pay go to all kinds of municipal programs many of us are not interested enough in to use.
I submit that repairing and improving a public range is not something we have to "find money for" when so many on this island already paid for the facility year after year after year.
