What the hell is the Federal Guv in far away Washington DC doing owning so much land in Nevada? The state of Nevada and various counties should be owning and administering this land. The huge Fed Guv percentage of ownership of Alaskan and Western states lands is thievery

IMHO, I do not believe any government should own the land, because it promotes greed and manipulation.

This control of massive swaths of land in the west by the feds is unconstitutional. Lands have to be sold by the states to the feds and are limited to usage such as post offices, postal roads, forts, dock yards etc.

As Article One, Section 8, Clause 17 states, Congress has the power:

To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings.

BLM has also refused to round up about 2,000 wild horses on this ground which by their grazing habits cause much more damage than cattle.

This is about control beginning with the land in the western states and unless its checked will continjue to spread like a cancer.

These county sheriffs and states need to man up here and begin kicking the BLM off state lands.
