Why should a citizen who never wants nor can afford to visit these places be held responsible? They should be offered and run by private enterprises with feasible plans for mainteneses from reasonable attendance fees. The only roll the Government should with them is crime and regulation of attendance fees the same way they addressed the airline industry.
