I'm proposing nothing. The article listed some possibilities of which I selected a few which I thought could be improved. If you're interested, read the article.

Typical response.
You'd prefer government subsidy, eh.

No. Bail outs never work. A manageable economy and cost of living for people does.
Seems you have no solution to financing
privatized (to Indians) national parks.
That being the case, dissing proposals
by others is pretty useless.

No there are solutions, and I agree with Trump. Drill baby drill. I'm fine giving parks to the indigenous Nations they can charge a fee themselves and keep that money to pay for their nation's needs. How's that for solutions?
More than what you got I would think , or am I wrong on that?
Fat chance! He will probably sell them off to the highest bidder. Or even more likely sell them off cheaply to his millionaire friends.
Last time around he wanted to raise entrance fees to the parks so that regular people could not afford them.
What does that policy actually mean,
given that USA already produces
much oil?
It fails to address how they'll address the
problem of fees not covering costs.
You're wrong.
But will it? It's a massive job, but poor Native American tribes are going to take over and not screw it up?
I see it as a way for the federal government to surrender authority, and big business will exploit the resources. What will tribes be able to do?
If you look at who now does tours etc, it's businesses. Personally I agree with @Twilight Hue on this. From my lefty perspective, it's land we stole from the Native Americans and that treaty breaking is our national shame. Besides which, thinking of them as poor, naive savages that have to be protected against possibly doing something stupid is the wrong approach. There maybe some things we want to guard against like selling a national park to the highest bidder, but with very broad criteria let them have at it. I'll bet they do a lot better than some assume.
