It will come regardless of whether neo-fascists are running the
country. The one difference is that without their influence there
would be a chance that at least some waters would be limited
on an egalitarian basis, such as lottery.

The limiting of access to private land--by leasing to guides and
outfitters, as is happening throughout the West, or by long-term leasing
to exclusive "clubs", as in the NYT story--is probably bound to happen no
matter who's in office. The wholesale divestiture of public lands, on the
other hand, is an entirely right-wing agenda.
