No one is forcing anyone to sell their property to an environmental group, it is completely voluntary.

The tactics used here by the government are also use by the enviro groups. They bring the law suits that force the government to put restriction on the land owner, forcing him to become a willing seller.

Here is a quote from Carry_Okie's web site:

Private "charitable" foundations of major corporations have effected this strategy across the nation, both in Congress and in the courts. They sponsor and publicize subjective "science," whether to obtain legislation directed to an obvious problem or toward legal action against a weakened target. Legal precedent extends the applicability of cited legislation and lowers the cost successive claims. Property owners gradually lose their ability to finance the cost of compliance or legal resistance. Lacking a profitable use of the property, the market value approaches zero. After repeated exercise of expensive regulations, purchase of the land then concludes any remaining claim by an owner.

Thanks for info. Ya know, I thought it was all tinfoil hat stuff myself when I first heard it. After looking at the available info however, I realized my tinfoil had was defective and it was for real :(

Look...the article that I originally responded to did not mention anything about any particular piece of property and clearly stated that private land sales to environmentalists were voluntary to get the the tax credits. If you are trying to say Bush is part of some grand NWO conspiracy, you better talk to someone who wears more tin foil than I do. Don't bother to ping me on other threads.
