NOW MAYBE YOU POLITICAL PLAYA'S CAN EXPLAIN SOMETHING TO ME. SEEMS THE MANTRA IF THE RULING JUNTA OF THE EASTERN TOWNS..... TOURIST DOLLAR. WE NEED IT TO
SURVIVE OTHERWISE WE WILL FALL INTO THE SEA...OK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR YOU BOYZ. GENERATES SOME COIN. MINIMUM WAGE JOBS. CLOGS UP THE ROADS. HELPS THE FARMERS
OUT...THEM BOYZ GET TDR'S AND TAX BREAKS AFTER A TDR??? SEEMS TO ME THESE TOURIST SUCK UP A LOT OF RESOURCES. SO MY QUESTION TO YOU BOYZ IN THE KNOW...WHY
ISN'T THIS A CAMPAIGN ISSUE? I MEAN IF IT'S SUCH A BIG PRODUCER FOR YOU BOYZ.... NOW DON'T THINK FOR A SECOND THAT I'M NOT GRATEFUL FOR ALL
THESE TOURISTS. I REALIZE THAT THAT YOU BOYZ DO ALL THIS FOR US HUMBLE TAXPAYER. I'M JUST A LITTLE CONFUSED WHY THIS ISN'T A CAMPAIGN ISSUE. YOU THINK
IT WOULD PRODUCE A TON OF VOTES. NOW WOULDN'T YOU.

There's a very simple reason they don't make tourists an issue. First of all, tourists can't vote. Secondly, if anyone really sat and thought about
just how wonderful the tourist economy is here in the worker's paradise, the public would storm the Bastille.

I was thinking this weekend, walking around the Country Fair ... Riverhead's Downtown is SO EMBARRASSINGLY EMPTY why don't they just have a festival
every single weekend? Just close down the street. Charge vendors an average of $200/each/day. Say there are 100 tents (there were many more this past weekend).
That's $40,000 per two-day weekend. Maybe 30 weekends a year of tolerable weather. That's $1,200,000 -- conservative estimate. And the town is getting
the taxes from the empty buildings, anyway.

I don't think a festival would have as much pizazz if it was every weekend, what would be the draw every weekend

YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT THIS ECONOMIC ENGINE OF PROSPERITY ISN'T GOING TO BE SHOWCASED. LOOK WHAT WE HAVE DONE FOR YOU, THE TAXPAYER. WE ARE RAKING IN THE
GOLD COIN. MY GOD BENITO THE RIGHTEOUS, THINK OF WHAT THE TAXES WOULD BE WITHOUT THE TOURISTS. WHY... WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO POLICE OVERTIME, SANITATION
OVERTIME, BUILDINGS AND GROUND OVERTIME. INFRASTRUCTURE, ELIMINATION OF HUMAN WASTE. WHERE WOULD WE SHOWCASE THE TOWN OF RIVERHEAD SHOW-MOBILE ALONG WITH
SMILING POLITICIANS. WAVING TO THE POPULOUS IN ALL THEIR GRANDEUR. THANK THE POLITICIANS FOR THE WORKER'S PARADISE. PRODUCED BY THE TOURIST ECONOMY. BY
GOD... REGANOMICS BENITO...TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMY. THE MASSES MUST BE REEDUJMACTED TO THIS NEW JOB FRONTIER. INDEED THE FUTURE IS PROMISING....HUH, YOU THINK
TAXES ARE GOING TO GO UP?????

SHOOT THEM....I DUNNO TO MANY LEGAL CHALLENGES TO THAT ISSUE. WHAT WE NEED IS A DARWINIAN APPROACH...SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST. ALONG WITH SPENDING MILLIONS TO
GENETICALLY ALTER THE JUICE OF THE VINE TO HELP THESE GENTLEMEN FARMER VINTNERS. NOT TO MENTION MAYBE DISASTER RELIEF FROM THE USDA. THE STONY BROOK BRAIN
TRUST HAS USED RECOMBINANT DNA SYNTHESIS TO GENETICALLY ENGINEER A GRIZZLY BEAR CAPABLE OF DISTINGUISHING TOURIST FROM LOCAL RESIDENTS. THE SAID BEAR WILL BE
INTRODUCED IN MATED PAIRS THROUGHOUT THE NORTH AND SOUTH FORKS. SUBSISTING ON A DIET OF TOURISTS AND POLITICIANS.

LOL, we need to stop and listen to ourselves - we sound like a bunch of townies.
Guess I just miss the 60's and 70's, plenty of public access to every beach and ramp, ocean, sound, bays, etc. We camped wherever the spot was pretty and conducive to a bonfire. If we ended up on someone's property we were welcomed with a few ears of corn or some fruit, and a reminder to make sure our fire was well out before we left. Now there are new-money houses where our dunes used to be, tourists and weekenders clogging up our roads and a whole industry of ass-kissing zoning boards, politicians, opportunists & hangers on sucking up the crumbs eagerly. The merchant class will tell you they bring in money and tax revenue without using services. In reality, the extra cops constables and sheriffs we pay to police them and the trade parade uses more resources than school taxes anyway. We've got to find a happy medium.

Snicker, snicker, guffaw! You are one crazy fellow, BDR!
I'm talking about the merchant class that feeds off the tourists, summer people, and their hangers-on. And please don't be feeding that Healthy Community Harvest jam to no stinkin' bears!!! We have to train their palates to appreciate tourist and summer people meat.
