Sounds like the solution to that is just a large deposit that’s refundable upon arrival?

- varenc 3y agoDoesn’t that still just favor people with more money? If you’re tight on money you won’t be able to afford the deposit. And if you’re really rich you still don’t care about the deposit. Also in many places the camping fee itself is already steep.
- ethanbond 3y agoCorrect it doesn’t equalize the richest to the poorest, but it does equalize much more of the in-between, where surely the vast majority of this issue lives. In general it seems with runaway wealth inequality we need an easy way to set fees and fines as a % of ability-to-pay (i.e. equalized pain-of-payment). We also need this for parking and traffic violations, for example.
