Mr. Bundy is willing to pay rent. TO HIS STATE. Not the government.
His state doesn’t own the property. The federal government does.
How about I rent your house for 50 years and decide 25 years in that you don’t really own the house and I stop paying rent? I’m not moving out though because I’m willing to pay your ex-wife. Even though your house was not community property because you bought it before you married, I think she deserved that house.
That’s fair, ain’t it?
I’ve not followed this story too closely. Did Mr Bundy file suit against gvt when he first stopped leasing from them? Just curious about that...if there’s a longer history to this, on his side. Thanks.
