    People, man. Park rangers are the nation’s cat herders. The amount of stupidity they intercept, well, I’m glad I don’t have to do it, and I’m more than happy to see my tax dollars fund their health care.

    Insofar as that still happens going forward. We may not have national parks in 4 yrs.

      Oh we’ll still have national parks. They’ll just have oil and/or fracking rigs on them.
