Mark Hamilton and the Twelve Visions Party

Dear Mr. Hamilton,
I sent this to Judge Stephens, Maryland Clubhouse Coordinator, to submit to you, however, I am not sure he understands the importance of this matter. My apologies if you have already received this.
Problem: On the twelve vision world website there is a statement that the national parks would be sold to industry right at the time a national movement is taking place to save the parks from industrialization. , seen by the PBS week long series on defending the parks land and wildlife, the Sierra clubs nearly 100,000 signatures pledging to protect them, and other conservation groups efforts. This is a significant number of voters.
Solution: Instead of selling off the parks and perhaps other National Treasures, such as museums why not turn the parks over to the Audobon Society, (the original caretakers) the Sierra Club and similar groups for management of these lands and wildlife?
Pros-
Groups use donations and fees for maintenance; government appropriations through taxation are not needed. The groups function through donations and member fees; administrative political actions they are involved in such as, lobbying, mobilizing voters, etc., takes alot from their budget. This plan would allow the money they presently spend for legislative reasons to be transferred to operational management of the parks and museums. Plus the entrance fees already available to the daily operation and through volunteerism the Parks are funded.
TVP has less opposition from voters. Voter image would be that the TVP are conservation advocates who see the prime law of protection as encompassing our indigenous wildlife and national parks. These lands are of such natural beauty no single adjective can fully describe them; people view them as national monuments and a birth right. Besides the fact ‘going green’, organic, conservation, sustainability and responsible technology is in, its everywhere!
Government regulatory beaucracy is no longer required. Because not just one group owns the parks, their regulation ( administrative duties, expenses and needs) are pretty much ensured. They’ll police each other.
Cons- Personally, I cannot think of any argument against it so I’ll leave thinking up these to the national committee members
Best Regards,
Clara T
