I guess this means that a landowner could ostensibly grant passage
along his side of the river, outside the navigation channel, and
charge a toll for that passage. Taxes would have to be paid on that
toll, thereby benefitting the US Treasury.
What a grand idea! "Boat on 'my' river, and reduce the federal deficit!"
Now, if I can get my local Fed. judge to do the same for the section
of the highway, outside the travel lanes, in front of my house, I
could charge a toll to all the walkers, bikers, skaters and roaming
dogs and make a nice additional income.
Somehow I don't think it would fly here in New England.
