I can’t for the life of me figure out why so many states continue to fund G&F solely through license sales. IMO, there should be a percentage of a sales tax that is earmarked for G&F. EVERY industry benefits in some way from natural resources, either directly via consumptive/non consumptive use, or indirectly via job recruiting and retention.think another thing that needs to be considered is the business entities that profit from wildlife, they need to start pitching in if they're going to have a seat at the table.
