They aren't stealing it. They are going to compensate the owners. They're stealing the money to pay the compensation.

What will they compensate my family for? Our own legacy, heritage and birthright?

What is the price for loss of liberty?

When you go out to your driveway tomorrow morning, and find your car gone, but a bag containing $1500 in its place, with a note saying "The Blue Book value on your car was $1500", are you going to say "I was ripped off!" or ar you going to say "I was compensated!"

They don't compensate. They don't even take your land. In the last big grab they gave us the Wild and Scenic Act. The "Trails" con will be the same. If your property falls within the boundary they draw, you are SOL. You can never improve or develope your property. If you want to remove that dead cedar that is leaning over your house, you must obtain a permit, including environmental impact statement. Notices have to be posted and all neighbors notified by registered mail. If anyone objects, even the guy who lives in Wasington DC and has never visited the land he owns, you will have to go to court. If your house burns, you will not be able to get a permit to rebuild. Homebuilding is not allowed in Scenic or Trail areas or anywhere within 150 feet of a stream. Your homeowners insurance will skyrocket. You are now in a primitive area with sub standard fire and police protection.

In the end, people leave and the government takes their land for unpaid taxes.

Good ironic distinction. I like your irony and precision of thought:

"They aren't stealing it. They are going to compensate the owners. They're stealing the money to pay the compensation."
