Eh, my favorite gun range is owned by the DNR and I love it.

I'm really conflicted here. Government in business is insane, but I love my muni golf courses.

As long as it's not the fed, idc. Also most of these things (here at least) are self-funded or paid for with voluntary vehicle passport fees. Also, I can't imagine a not shitty for-profit metropark. lol

Yeah, but that doesn't mean it's not an efficient use of resources. Torrey Pines is fantastic, but can I with a straight face argue it shouldn't be housing? Not really.
-
Fuck efficient. We're not knickknacks in need of shelving. Soul needs feeding, too.
-
In fact I'd argue that govt is fine providing parks and common spaces, but not housing.
-
I'm not suggesting San Diego build condos on Torrey Pines! I'm just saying if they sold the land for someone else to do what they want with the land (which in the absence of zoning would be building condos) I'm not sure how I'd argue with it.
-
I'm a believer in reduced zoning. Perhaps not Houston-like 'no-zoning'. But I think zoning is mostly bad. I'm not against parks at all. But I'd like a methodology to justify them that is somewhat grounded in maximizing something valuable in some kind of quantitative way.
