Everything based on regressive, exploitative taxation is toxic. This kind of choice shows it. Neither choice will benefit the working class. Both choices are exploitative. What is the answer that stops punishing the poor for being poor? Sounds like any campsite will participate in economic apartheid. The socialist thing would be to create a free campsite for citizens to enjoy their property. Or let the city take it over and charge on a sliding scale making the rich pay more. A voice agitating to overthrow economic apartheid and poor punishing is important even if the capitalists steamroll them with false choices.

I imagine a public ally funded treehouse campground would need to address those who need wheelchairs whereas a private campground might not? Whether that is a pro or con I suppose depends on how you think about people with handicaps.
