I am all for the elimination of auctioning off the state's animals to the highest bidders. If the rich are really about conservation, they can drop 400,000.00 on raffle tags.
I am 100% for raffle tags and 100% against auction tags.

I’m not even 100% sure that more money is what state agencies need to manage wildlife, much like education, I don’t really see the correlation of money spent resulting in a win, it seems that as with all government spending the end result is typically a net negative to society. You guys in Washington need look no further, legal marijuana is a boon to the states coffers, thus they must have a lot of money to spend, but in what ways has the lives of any Washington taxpayer improved since weed was legalized, as far as I can tell the last few times I’ve been to Washington, your roads are worse than ever before and you all continue to be more heavily taxed as the government continues to take away your freedoms. All that to say I don’t see the loss of a 1 time per year shot in the arm of $500k to AGFD as any loss at all really, they will just have to find a way to do their jobs, maybe it means their game wardens only get a new truck every other year instead of every year.
