Pick up your signs and march, Americans. We're headed down to Zions National Park to protest against the park being shut down, and to protest against the government reopening it. We'll carry a sign, and it will say, "If you're moving out, we're moving in." And, we'll demand that the state government or us as the citizenry, or someone be allowed to run the park in the government's absence.
Oh, but that is not nearly enough. We'll carry a sign that says, "Really, really, we're okay. Stay closed, Sam," and another that says, "No! You've got us wrong! We don't want you to reopen."
See, there's a bunch of us who have been saying all along that the government ought to get out of this, and ought to get out of that. We've been saying for years that government spends way too much money.
And, now it stops, and we're going to complain? No, guess again. This is our opportunity. This is our chance to step forward and do all the things the government has just left for us. Hungry people not getting fed? We can help. Was there ever a Katrina or a time when the Trade Towers were hit when we didn't step up and help? Why shouldn't we now? Eight-hundred thousand federal workers left without jobs? I'm not rich enough. I don't own a business. But, I believe America has thousands of businesses willing to take them in and employ them either on a temporary or permanent basis.
We could step into this void, if we wanted. We could show we don't need so much government, anyway. We could carry a sign that says, "Don't hurry back, Sam. We're doing just fine without you."
