    $11.50 for a block

    Just got my unsuccessful request for a hunting block on the blue mountains this morning complete with a nice go fuck yourself letter telling me that in the future it will cost me $11.50 plus a 70 cent stamp to apply and most likely not get a block on the Blue Mountains each month.

    My question is how can it cost $11.50 per application per hunter per month to run a ballot?

    If there are 100 permit applications per month (I know there are well more than that) that nets them $1150 and seems a bit steep to me, I wonder who the ass wipe consultant was that thought this marvellous plan up?

    All I can see happening now is an increase on the already bad poaching problem on the Blue Mountains.

    As soon as I work out how to change a PDF to a file I can up load to here (as I can't seem to upload a PDF) i'll post the letter.
