The camps were started by generous people or organizations (both with their time and money). It was and is a symbol of social responsibilities and positive "can-do" American attitudes. To think society is so misguided to look at them as a source of revenue or jealousy because they are perceived to get something for free is truly disturbing.

I believe the spirit of NH is or was "live Free or Die". We did not want to pay for politicians to run our lives. We did not believe we needed to be regulated by Washington, Concord, or city hall. We will carry the burden for education and basic social costs (hospitals, infrastructure, safety, and defense). In the nineties we had an explosion of government agencies that are now robbing us. To suggest another tax will only further government growth. We need to cut government and focus on the fundamentals.
