Fees To Enter Popular National Parks Would Skyrocket Under Interior Department Plan
I don't think there should be any fees for parks. After all, we don't charge fees to use the public libraries. Certainly doubling fees at national parks is the wrong way to go. Why not tap the billions the Department of Interior is bringing in on off-shore leases and Bureau of Land Management Lands from fossil fuels and timber to pay for the needed upgrades of parks? The reason we allow logging, coal mining, oil and gas extraction on public lands after all is to provide a public benefit, namely revenue for the lands upkeep.
