Europeans disagree with US on visas and tourist tax - http://euobserver.com/9/28951
But Ms Napolitano warned the EU legislature to "be careful what it asks for," as there are numerous voices in Congress that want to scrap the visa waiver scheme altogether, citing security concerns. ...

The tax is necessary to fund a non-profit company aimed at promoting tourism, she said. - Alan A. Lew
