Tim's Dues Proposal. Will it Fly?

I'm not saying the junior dues should be raised to $75. I am

I don't believe that. The USCF is suffering death by self-inflicted
stupidity, not by undercharging junior dues.
The dues are paid by the parents, not the kids.
Irrelevant.
The idea of even having junior dues came from a time when a much
lower percentage of chessplayers were juniors. I was also before it
was realized that most juniors quit before or during their college
years.
Fine, get rid of separate junior dues, lower adult dues so they're
the same as current junior dues.
