Its official. They are shutting all of us down ASAP. Marching orders straight from the White House.
Update: Mr. Meyer emails to add that not only is his business being forced to take losses for the closures, but in some cases the government is making him and the other park management companies buy the barricades that will be used to shut the parks.
Warren Meyer of Phoenix, AZ, is owner and president of Recreation Resource Management, Inc. RRM employs about 400-500 camp workers and managers across about a dozen states. It is one of a handful of companies that have been managing national parks and campgrounds as tenants for years, through previous government shutdowns including the last one in 1995-1996. Those previous shutdowns never closed any of the parks managed in this way, but the current shutdown threatens closure.
The campgrounds are self-sufficient and receive no federal funding. No government employees staff or manage the parks. The management companies pay the National Park Service out of the funds they generate from operating the thousands of campgrounds. So the reason for the shutdown is puzzling to Meye
The federal government seizes land illegally to use as collateral for it’s massive, unprecedented borrowing.
Colonial Farm owner was just on Greta. Has been ordered to shut down, cancel all events which she stated was about $20,000.00 this week. Privately funded, sits on government land. She said they weren’t going anywhere. She was asked if she and employees knew they could be arrested, to which she said yes.
Once upon a time a newly elected Democrat governor of Ohio wanted a tax increase and took it to the people on a vote. He lost the vote, and in retaliation he closed the state parks. He lost his next election too. The man is still hated in this state.

That might wake the the Ozombies from their slumber.

What if the left finally wakes up and realizes 0 is half-white and is just playing them?
Wone mattah.They like the other half...that half can play them as long as he’d like. It’s all good.
Obama is counting on the public blaming the Republicans for all the closures. For a large part of the public, it will probably work...all those who listen to the mainstream media. Others will think both parties equally to blame for the closures. Most people don’t understand the separation of powers and which branch is responsible for what.
We're getting somewhere, and the RINO's need to grow some balls now and fight harder.
Let the American voters see some battles the way our Founders intended. Fist fighting and all.
Barack Obama is acting like a dictator. He wants Americans to suffer, if it helps his personal agenda. If there were any honest Democratic politicians, they wouldn’t go along with this crap. So we have a dictatorial President, and a political party that goes along with him. We have obviously gone a long way down in this country. The question is, what will the genuinely concerned people do about it? Or do we have to accept an authoritarian government and a divided country?
Anyone got pictures of our grand public servants riding around in taxpayer subsidized limos?
I wish he would bring it and get it over with.
Inevitable if you ask me.
C’mon Barack, while we’re young you f’n pussy.
I think Ted Cruz said it best .... they are failing and they are desperate.
failing and flailing
What is their justification? That taxes fund the roads surround them and therefore it is all fed property, which would then of course apply to all of our businesses, homes and churches?
Page 362 of Rules For Radicals (the Koran with which Osama Obama grew up) suggests that he’ll next order supermarkets to close....”for the people”.
Which if true, would demonstrate the folly of allowing the government to think roads are public property.
