I wonder if that is what Andrew Jackson told the Indians?
That argument will go nowhere.
Bundys never owned the land in question. The US government has legal title on the land. There is no reason for our government to collect rent on land they own when people use it, that’s the least we citizens can expect when they are in debt 15 trillion dollars.
Bundys paid rent but stopped in 1993. Why? Looks like it was a dumb move to me. Others pay rent and are not where Bundys find themselves.
