Hmm, let's see.

A vote on whether CCs should pay more.  Now, who is going to be the
most interested in the outcome of that vote?

Joe Average (boater).  I don't think so.  He's got plenty of grips
about the waterways, and CCs probably aren't at the top of his list,
or even near enough to the top for him to bother voting.

The CCs?  Ah!  If the vote is "yes", they might actually get hit in
the wallet.  So they will turn out and vote "No".  Notice who brought
this to the attention of this ng.

Is this a meaningful vote?  Get real!
