In the long term, they help immensely. They create jobs of their own accord, and also allow neighboring communities to cash in on the travel-related industries: lodging, restaurants, etc. In countries like Tanzania, eco-tourism makes up a huge component of the country's economy, and the main source of incoming money from abroad.

Although some national parks might contain mineral or fossil fuel wealth, their extraction is only a short-term gain that leaves the land denuded and unwanted.

The value of pristine wilderness for health and psychology probably cannot be quantified, especially in terms of dollars and cents. This is among the reasons that national parks are established.

How Do McCain and Obama feel about fixing the Economy?

They both claim to want to fix the economy, but neither have a good plan to do it. They both voted for the bailout, or B.O.M.B. (Bush Obama McCain Bailout), which has done nothing to help the economy. In fact the bail out is going to hurt the economy much more than it will ever help. Only Bob Barr and Chuck Baldwin have good solid plans to fix the economy.
