My question is, with all these states scrambling for funds to maintain their highways, & making cuts to other projects that were deemed as absolutely necessary, where do they suddenly find money to fund National Parks & Forests.
When this is all over, will they again be crying that they are broke? :h
The article touches on it. The amount of lost revenue to the states due to closure of the parks exceeds the cost to open them. Many businesses and jobs depend on the tourism. If those businesses and jobs are impacted, then tax revenue is impacted.
