    It won’t be uplifting when Trump fires them all and closes the parks.

        No of course not. He’ll suck every natural resource out first and then pave over them. Need more parking!

      I’m sure Yosemite, Sequoia, and Kings Canyon National Parks can be run—super bigly—by those 18 remaining “patriots”…

    Everyone would vote for union. Which means it SHOULD be federal law as it’s what the people want: better conditions and salary for workers.

    But its not really a democracy then, is it?
