[quote=Anonymous]Hopefully they are putting it to the cost of mitigating the environmental impact of tourism. Cities used to get thus through hotel tax but now people stay in VRBOs so they get less. Rome has a residence tax on vrbo rental. Costa Rica charges an entry fee for tourists. I don’t object to any of this. Tourism causes some externalized costs on the city which are t always covered by tax revenue from the tourism. If a city finds that the costs exceeds the revenue, a per head price is a good way to internalize the economic externalities. We learned this in Econ 101. Seems very rational to me! [/quote]
