Isn't that the same logic Glenn was suggesting?

Seems to me that's exactly Glenn's point: end the government subsidy and
if
those communities don't ante up, the lakes would deteriorate.
Your words suggest it's OK for payments from these lake communities to be
voluntary.
Don't pick on only the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway..

I'm not. I'm applying the same principle across the board. You want deep
water for your yacht (or runabout or whatever), expect to pay for it. You
want your local lake to be suitable for boating, swimming, etc., expect to
pay for it. Don't expect the general taxpaying public who don't have
yachting waters, lakes, etc. to carry the freight for your leisure time
activities.
