Based on the thuggish Federal closings of open air monuments and National Parks, is it feasible the feds could TRY shut down the Interstate Highway system?

    No. Although partial funding for the IHS was provided by the feds, the states are responsible for law enforcement. Ever see an FBI agent write a ticket?

    Apparently the FED has also shut down the Atlantic Ocean somewhere in FL. Heard it this morning on the way to work from a local Talk Radio guy. No fishing and no Charters. the FED will be patrolling. The reference was a Breitbart article but I haven’t seen it.

    From what I am seeing, we should make it priority to defund and disband the Park Service. And Forestry. And BLM.
Return the land to the states.

    It would certainly be a hoot if they tried...
It would crash the economy of the nation within 3 days. And it might make the union OTR truckers a bit grumpy.

This park will probably be driven out of business and never be able to reopen again.

    They shutdown the entire Florida Bay. From the Everglades to Key West. No Fishing, Boating or use of the waters of any kind. This is crazy... This is TYRANNY plain and simple.
