The only reason that the #NPS can get rid of the entry reservation system they used to have because of overcrowding... ...is that foreign tourism is so down right now over the visas and ICE bullshit that the parks aren't actually overcrowded and aren't likely to be in the otherwise 'peak' summer season. THAT SAID, that was not the point. This was yet another attempt to "make the park experience suck so much that people demand change, and then offer privatization as the 'solution' to the problem they invented". It is no different from all of the firings last year - it is all about getting the public to demand change, so they can then do the change they want and sell the parks to private interests. It is all there in Project 2025. It was always the intent.
