  1. We have a traffic problem especially in places like the cape and it gets exponentially higher in the summer for almost everyone, making everything nearly inaccessible for residents as is, residents in MA are forced to vacation in the cape or other popular summer spots in the winter or not at all because of the burden
  2. Because residents of the state who pay taxes for those parks and areas deserve a little reprieve (if you think the same of where your taxes go, vote in your own state)
  3. Because MA has a high cost of living in general, so if we had to pay tourists prices, either most wouldn’t go, or it wouldn’t really make a difference to us
  4. Because MA is forward thinking and believes that even it’s poorest citizens should be able to engage with its own landmarks before out of staters take it away from them.
  5. Because fuck em’

surprised im not seeing more people talk about traffic tbh. i went to acadia in july one year, shit was a parking lot, never again. think i spent more time in the car trying to drive around the big loop than anything else.
