There is an abundance of open space available to the public in the forms of national, state, county and city parks, Midpeninsula Open Space to name the most prominent. It's a much better set of resources than a private individual could possibly accumulate in what most consider an urbanized area in the USA. I'm happy to contribute my tax dollars for these assets for all. I have lived in urban/suburban areas where all the land has been bought up by private interests and there is a distinct paucity of outdoor opportunities in those areas by comparison.
