I don't need to come out there, I believe you !

You want is more fun overhere as well. The government owns the dunes and flood planes as well, there is hardly any civilian building in those area's. And any town that happened to be right on the coast line for several hundreds of years has a duty to maintain public access to the beaches, FREE OF CHARGE ! That is where we all pay higher taxes for ! Others get excellent football field, I easily accessible beaches. The soccer players pays partly for my ramp and I pay partly for his pitch. On average this works out equally beneficial for all. And THAT is socialism, looking beyond one owns direct interests and understand that "common good" things can only be maintained if individual groups work together. The real great thing about is that you don't need to show party membership or a little red book to proof you are worthy of making use of the common good stuff. Best of both worlds, I call that.
