I am actually retired and living off of a pension, so I am in the middle class. If you can't afford to pay $100 for a couple of draw tags at one time, then you can't afford to pay to fuel up a truck to go hunting, let alone the other expenses associated with hunting.

I agree...But why not do like many States do, put up the money upon entry. If drawn it is paid out for the tag immediately if not it is refunded.
A buddy puts out a couple thousand of dollars a year putting in for tags in the U.S. He gets most of it back unless he pulls a tag, this year he hunted Arizona Coues Deer tag cost was right around $600. At least if they choose to not use the tag, the money for the tag goes back into the system.

I am just not overly thrilled about advancing the government money, and then having to wait for a refund. And with our present government, I feel even more strongly about this.
