Yes, and land sales. After the 1880s, land sales decreased dramatically as the feds closed the ranges and instead charged grazing fees.

Ahhhhh I forgot about the land sales and grazing fees. Do you think it is possible to ever go back to that kind of limited government again, or do you think we will always now and forever be saddled with some kind of an IRS? Would we even want to? In principle I would think so, but not sure if the practicality argument could be made - not to mention won - anymore.
