Speaking of tourist tax.
I saw a mention on the local news just this morning.
Local restaurants here (supposedly only the oceanfront ones),
just got the go ahead to open up again just in time for
the tourist season.

They are adding a "Covid tax" of 2.something percent to their
bills. Really? Cheap greedy turds. Just being able to open
again is not good enough. They want to charge people extra.

Also...it's not a govt. tax. Just extra fee for them.
They claim it's to cover the cost of extra cleaning.
I hope they all fail and go out of business.
