The parks are not going to be "terminated", only unneeded government jobs will be.
The parks will be fine, safe and sound behind armed guards and locked gates of the authoritarian State machine.
However the parks WILL be unnecessarily held hostage meanwhile. That is what we must oppose, with strategic harassment and distraction of the guards to free the parks from state control.
This is opportunity people! The enemy is retreating, trying to convince us that their loss is our loss when their loss is really our gain.
PARKS ARE FOR PEOPLE NOT BUREAUCRATS! CUT THEIR BUDGET!
