Well shoot... I guess you’ve got me. It’s just peachy that the Feds are using the BLM to prevent use of more and more land. Pretty soon, we’ll be eating vat grown tofu and living in high-rise cubicles.
You’ve won me over. Congrats...
How much land the federal government should own or be limited to, is a seperate question. To address that specific issue, I would support a constitutional amendment that limits the federal government to owning no more that 20% of the land mass of a state.
But to the point of this rancher’s case, asserting squater’s rights and then attepting to manipulate the press with misleading statements as Bundy has done in this situation, is not the right way to go about addressing the situation.
