Better Use for $1 Fee

Regarding the county’s $1 hike in the auto registration fee, here we go again taking from the average-class citizens to pay overpriced lawyers for an issue that won’t be solved in the courts anyway.

If we are really trying to help the average citizen, then we need to put our money in solutions that will help the situation of auto theft before it occurs and not after the fact. Then maybe car thieves can get a good direction in life and help the economy instead of taking from our disposable income and thereby hurting our ability to buy.
