While I've done a fair amount of business with the BLM over the years, I'm not an employee.
And even though I'm not an employee of any federal agency, I can still see where somebody is trying to get something for nothing. And this Bundy guy is Poster Boy El Numero Uno. Like I say...I don't know of any other ranchers running cattle on federal lands that aren't paying their grazing rental. (There could be some, but I don't know about them if there are.) I can't see what makes Mr. Bundy any different from any other rancher in the West, except they're willing to live up to their obligations, whereas he apparently isn't.
The BLM is doing its job by issuing the grazing leases and collecting the rents. If they have a tenant that is grazing cattle without paying the allotment fee, then that tenant (Mr. Bundy) is stealing from you, me, Paladin2, and everybody else who's a taxpayer. Quibble with their methods if you must, but they are doing the job the taxpayer hired them to do.
