To date, more than 105 million acres of public lands, mostly within national forests, have been set aside as wilderness, which prohibits development and mechanized access. They talk about this like it's wonderful. I consider it a crime.

Fascinating the Robert has bought-up and developed his own little slice of wilderness for his own commercial use.

Why are you against preserving the wilderness?

1st step --- get rid of Sundance, replant millions of trees, tear out roads, and make it pristine wilderness again. And if you won't, Sundance Kid, STFU!

Can't we have a movement that encourages development of unused land??? Start a movement to take the land the Fed stole and give it bakc to the state and people of the state?? Who do we petition to take down the communist who'd steal every bit of private property in this country?

Hey, Redford, it won't matter how much land you want to reserve for this or reserve for that. When HRC and JFK come into power, it will be the Global Government who will assign the land. Then maybe all you communists will be happy.

You beat me to posting this article. I'm tired of Bob. I boycott all things Sundance.

A lot of that proposed new Wilderness surrounds the communities in my district. We already have an enormous amount of land adjacent to these areas "preserved" from multiple use and human management. You can image the fire danger. In addition, communities with 70% unemployment are surrounded by choked overgrown forests that they are not allowed to touch.
You have to hike or go on horseback into these areas, This leaves out enjoyment by the disabled or most older folks. The folks who hike don't usually expend a great deal of money in the towns, so wilderness is no booster for the local economy. What does happen is that hundreds of Mexican cartel marijuana growers set up operation in the Wilderness.
Don't tell me that folks should not have encroached on wildland. These communities have been there for 150 years or more.
