The stuff I read about today in LA is fascist lunacy.
Ditto. I experienced similar stuff in Massachusetts where many of the beach towns charge $20+ for beach parking, regardless of how long you're going to be. Kind of expensive if you're just going to be an hour or two with the kids, or surf fish for a couple of hours. As you said, the idea is to restrict outsiders and leave the beaches only for townies. Guess that's typical for all the states like California where the progressives want the government to restrict public use and access to "their" public lands, deserts, beaches, ocean and other wilderness areas.
