“True conservation is taking care of the land and water you already have, not insatiably acquiring more and hoping it manages itself,” the op-ed reads. “Let’s maintain what we’ve already got, so we can protect it properly,” it concludes.
While the authors seem to push for “true conservation” from the federal government, in reality, PERC has a long history of advocating for the privatization of America’s national parks and other public lands, and has significant ties to the Koch brothers and fossil fuel industries.

We all must realize that in order to achieve our goal of a completely freedom-loving Libertarian Utopia we must get rid of those disgraces called “National Parks” which are nothing more than utter Socialist wastes of land better used as strip mining and landfill facilities.. We all know that those truly worthy of using “unspoiled” lands will find a way to gain membership to private-use reserves where you can hike, bike, and camp, and shoot fenced-in lions to boot all you want.(all for a high fee, of course as well as not so sbutle adverts conspicuously within eyeshot of interesting landmarks) All hail our Libertarian Utopia!
