Putting them under private management is NOT "selling them off"

It's exactly what it means. Our National Parks are for the public good so they should be publicly managed. I bet you can't wait to see giant bill boards in Yellowstone.

It means no such thing
The federal governemnt will still own the parks

And the publicly managed parks aren't very good for the public with its 12 billion dollar backlog of repairs and maintenance not to mention the piss poor customer service and make you want to puke bathrooms

National parks suffer from $12 billion in disrepair

Our national parks are falling into disrepair

Our national parks are falling into disrepair

seems to me the fucking government has done a piss poor job at managing our parks

Trump's destruction of America as we know it continues.

Why, it is a veritable BLITZKRIEG! Trump is out there smashing the nation with a SLEDGEHAMMER and a BULLDOZER! CRASH! BANG! ZOWIE! I would miss all the world's great news stories if I did not read this forum.

Public-private partnership,” says the non-profit National Resources Defense Council, is “code for privatizing the management of our national park system. The idea is both unpopular (huge majorities of Americans in virtually every demographic oppose privatization) and unwise (our national parks are a public good and therefore should be publicly managed).”

Yep. Why would you want private ownership where there is competition and an incentive to compete to make a profit when you can have the government run it where they have no incentive at all because win, lose or fail, they still get paid the same either way! I mean, after all, we all know that the government can run anything so much more cheaply and effectively than private enterprise!

Yeah, that is where I get all of MY reliable information too, from a hack website named "Left Scoop," where every article, every photo is a fake, trumped-up (sorry) attack on one guy?! About the only scoop I see there is a scoop of well-used kitty litter. FLUSH!

Trump's destruction of America as we know it continues.

Despite the parks’ successes, President Trump is privatizing most of the 400 owned U.S. sites and 59 National Parks. He’s cutting funds for lands where low-income and middle-class Americans have escaped to for a century.

Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke announced that the Trump administration plans to utilize “public-private partnerships” so that Trump can cut $1.5 billion from the department’s budget. “Public-private partnership,” says the non-profit National Resources Defense Council, is “code for privatizing the management of our national park system. The idea is both unpopular (huge majorities of Americans in virtually every demographic oppose privatization) and unwise (our national parks are a public good and therefore should be publicly managed).”

The country cannot afford these parks, it's best to cut a more efficient means to run these parks

 

[Rustic]

That has been happening all over the country for a while. See, cities and such do that to offset the cost. Why havent you fucking retards been bitching for decades, if its so important?

Liar. We have not been privatizing our national parks for decades? ?
Just admit it. You'll defend any abomination Trump supports.
9/2017: Trump advocates all female children born from this point on to have mandatory genital mutilations.
DEPLORABLES: we agree.

You're confused Muslims only do that…

Private-Public management is Mussolini fascism.

You do realize it already costs money to get into parks right? I have been to state and national parks many times and had to pay to get in.

 

[Preacher]

Obviously what numb nuts OP doesn't comprehend is that charge a price that's TOO HIGH and people won't come! AKA they will have to close the park! DUH! I went to park in Kingsport,Tn had to pay to get in,pay to see the animals etc. Park in Hartwell,Ga remember MANY times going as a kid and parents having to pay a fee to get in,Park in Winder,Ga where we used to have family reunions again MANY times been there and EVERY time had to pay fee to get in!

------------------------------------------------ well , lets sell them off then Skull .

No need to

Under private management we get the best of both worlds. Beautiful protected wilderness and well run and clean facilities

With Pruit's and Trump's anti environmental policies there will be no protected wildernesses if they get their way.

Your ridiculous. How many parks have you been to? I have been to many, and almost all of them have private businesses inside the park borders. Making a PROFIT ensures the park gets better, not worse, you socialist! Do you think autos got better because they were losing money? How about healthcare? Cellphones anyone?

Your position is untenable, it really is. What draws people to these places? BEAUTY! And so your BRILLIANT position is-----------> we are going to let privatization in to make money, and they are going to DESTROY the very thing that has people coming there in the 1st place, so they can make money, lolol!

How DUMB are you! How brainwashed are you? Your position is BASSACKWARDS and another sky is falling, crying wolf, along with The Russians are coming, The Russians are Coming......routine.

You far leftists are absolutely pathetic, along with incompetent, irrelevant, and immaterial!
