Visit a State Park while you can...

Hey lets save money from the state budget so PA doesn't go under. I'm in favor of that. PA could cut the bureacratic waste and cut its budget by 10-20%. How about losing some representatives and state senators - do we really need the 2nd largest congress out of all 5o states?

No, lets close state parks. You know, close public land to the public. The list is here:

So a quick list shows every state park local to State College except Black Mo is on the list. Greenwood? Are u kidding me? Whipples? Poe paddy, poe valley, penn roosevelt, reeds gap, rb winter, mcalls dam.

Personal favs linn run, kinzua bridge, and trough creek (!!!). Notable others are blue knob, laurel summit, laurel mtn, ole bull, yellow creek, and warriors path.

But why? I pay my taxes to use state parks, not to support a meth clinic in Philly or a cable TV for our prison inmates. And that's just a start. I wasn't really fired up about this as we all have to cinch our belts in tough times. But this isn't the way. These are too important. Cut something else. Parks=Tourism=Dollars. Its simple. Impeach Rendell.
