Money is the Crux of the Matter

28 02 2008

Guess what.  The state is about ready to bilk you to the tune of $1,040 for the privilege of memorializing drunk driving victims with roadside memorials.  The same bill would prohibit the homemade wooden-cross memorials on state right-of-way.  Why am I not surprised that the fee is the number 1040?

I’m also wondering what is so bad about wooden crosses on the sides of roads that the state wants to get rid of them, and making the legit memorials prohibitively expensive such that there will be very few of them.  I’m guessing it has to do with a certain company not way too far from your blogmeister, one that wields a big stick in state politics.
