Why do government shutdowns effect national parks so greatly?

There ought to be a national dialog about why our national parks are so fracture critical, unable to withstand only a minor temporary, reduction in maintenance. We should think about permanently removing infrastructure and roads in the national parks, managing them more as wilderness and managed forest rather than developed recreational lands. National parks are too costly, too environmentally destructive and give a false impression of the natural lands they protect. I believe we should make national parks wild again.
