The problem with the Endangered Species Act, as is the problem with everything the government does, is it was hijacked to further political aims. If there was a project some Greenies didn’t like, they’d find a species that the project endangered and *viola! * the project is killed. Virtually everything is viewed by the Left as a means to accomplish their goals. And the goals of the Left are diametrically opposed to the rest of us in the pursuit of happiness. The best thing we could do is role back government to what it was in the 1920’s.
If they had had the Endangered Species Act back in the day, we might still have dinosaurs, mammoths, and sabre toothed cats.
The extinction is of sub species that are not fit.
Turns out the spotted owl can live in a variety of places and doesn’t want to die off.
The ESA is a political/emotional tool.

What’s all this I keep hearing about endangered feces?
How can feces be endangered?
People are pooping all over the place!
You know the rest.
Evolutionists, darwinists, natural selection lovers
All love them selves some evolution
Until they don’t.
The ESA prevents evolution.
( not that I believe in it /-)
Kinda like dems love democracy until their butts are voted out.
Translation: We need more money!
What extinctions has the Endangered Species Act... prevented? Cannot think of one- and lots of species have gone extinct over the past million years without help from humans either way.
