Locals already support w/ taxes (yes?) But visitors are spending ton to get to NYC, stay there already. Prbly make less than locals too.

I'd like to know if the Met receives federal funds. If so, the admission policy should reflect that.

Might be smarter to add a very small tax that hits visitors invisibly, such as on hotel stays?

NJ pays highest state prop txes-We pay NYC/NYS taxes to work in NYC&don't get many services like schools. Don't bite the hands that feed you
-
that would justify a waiver for those who work in NYC (so are NY taxpayers), less so for the average NJ resident
