How to privatize Social Security and Yellowstone National Park

Social Security:  Fire thousands of government workers; make it difficult to contact your local Social Security office; get young tech bros to compromise millions of numbers; say the system is now riddled with corruption.  Claim that only private ownership can fix this.  End one of the most successful retirement programs ever developed, but allow private owners and stockholders to make a killing, much like they do with privatized health care.


Yellowstone National Park:  Fire Rangers and crucial park employees; allow the park facilities to deteriorate; make it difficult to visit the Park or camp there.  Claim that only private ownership can fix this.  Point to Disneyworld and Disneyland as examples of success.  Raise daily ticket prices to $100 a day and add rides, ATV trails, and buffalo hunts for trophy hunters.
