Let us vote with dollars. If the public supports these programs, let them do so directly by financing purchase and maintenance through admission costs... don't expect the rest of us to subsidize your holiday. I'm from California, and I'm too busy working to make my myriad tax payments to spend time at yosemite.

First off, not many people are going to be even able to afford the large parcels of land. Mainly it will be offshore banks and companies that purchase them. OF course these new owners will charge the tax paying Americans who maintain the land with our Tax money to use the land. This is already being considered in California with existing roadways, bridges, airports etc. I can see it now, "The Sony Yellowstone National Park. Our National parks will become like sporting arenas. I also disagree, our National Parks are some of the richest, most beautiful, fertile land in all of North America.
