@Vorticity

Are you saying that all the trees, rocks and other beauties in national parks are created by park employees and the state? Are you saying that private individuals cannot provide park services?

No, we are saying that privatisation is bad for general public

No, but all the trees, rocks, and other beauties in national parks are protected and cared for by park rangers and the state. Wanna see what that looks like without them? Lots of graffiti, people carving shit into rocks and trees, trash left everywhere.

As usual, the answer to "Why can't this be left up to the people?!" is because people are assholes.

I’m sorry you had such an abusive and neglectful upbringing :(. Please try your best to break the cycle of abuse.
