Chop all the forests down. Pollute the air. Kill all the wild animals. Throw trash everywhere. Pollute the rivers so that they turn green or brown (or, red even). Make everything that isn't where rich people live look like a fucking landfill.

If billionaires aren't making money from it, who cares? That includes people - What good are you if you aren't producing wealth?

Why would you care about National Parks anyways? Shouldn't you be working? If you can visit a national park, clearly you aren't in the grindset enough! Get back to work so that you can buy more mass-produced shit from Amazon!
