Admittedly, I am not an expert on government programs but closing the program sounds like a bad idea to me. I find it difficult to comprehend that if it closes that it will start again under a new name and provide more value. To be honest, I like what CDOT is trying to do. They questioned the means in which the vendors were operating and now plan to regulate the shit out of them. Those that don't like it will leave which could open up the door for better training from new vendors who can figure out ways to be profitable under the new payback method. Win win in my opinion.

Taking the fees away is also a concern. While I despise all form of taxes I know that the money is at least pointed in our general direction. If they stop the fees it will be even harder to start collecting them again in the future (because of people like me who oppose all new taxes) and in the meantime, we loose.

I would like to see the program fixed before deciding to pull the plug.
