It's to relieve the inequities inherent in the system.  Schools are a good 
example of why funds are pooled.  Public schools are run by local districts. 
The rich districts (Emeryville, for instance) get the good schools and the 
poor districts (Oakland) get the poor schools.  But state parks are run on a 
statewide basis, so they pool the money and try to spread it out in an 
equitable say so that they all work better.  Big Basin, it is said, runs a 
surplus, while Hearst Castle, even though popular, runs a big deficit.
