James Kataoka, the City and State will tax any and all sources of funding they can get their hands on to get Rail built.  They are no better than junkies looking for their next fix at any cost including robbing us and the tourists.  There is no difference between our politicians and the street scum with needle marks up their arms.  Even if the tourist industry is materially affected with their tax they will claim the end justified the means to get Rail built and satisfy their political donors.
