TIMESHARE TAXES - or LEGALIZED GRAFT ?

Why are we paying a $50 TIMESHARE tax per week and a $7.50 per day ENERGY tax ?

Shouldn't this be covered by the Maintenance Fee or at least by the Government's 10% USE tax ?

Where is the timeshare located? Some operate like All-inclusive resorts where, in addition to maintenance fees, you pay for what you use.

So if nobody uses that week, nobody pays any electrical or energy tax.

This could be ANYWHERE ! ... Ive paid this in St. Maarten, Cancun even Disney !

They are not All - Inclusive ( meals & services included) ... However we've paid a Facilty / Use Tax for those resorts as well !
