The solution is to not transfer public lands. If the management isn't what you want it to be then congress is the place to lobby and in politics you never get 100% of what you want.
The employment numbers are phoney. Wall Street isn't being duped they are duping the low hanging fruit how never took econ 101. There is no free lunch, you cannot create an economy out of debt and money printing.
If Obama was a Republican and we had the same economy we have now you would be whining like a little girl about how unfair it is. Why do you think the top 1% has done so well under Obama?

Jobs
As of December, the economy had gained a net total of 3,246,000 jobs since Obama first took office, and the unemployment rate had fallen to 6.7 percent, down from 7.8 percent. Despite the gains, more than 10 million people remained unemployed, including 3.9 million who had been out of work for 27 weeks or longer. That's an increase of nearly 1.2 million ?long-term unemployed? since the start of the Obama presidency. The average time that an unemployed person in December had been looking for work was 37 weeks, nearly double the average at the time Obama entered the White House.
Stagnant Wages, Record Corporate Profits
The divide between the affluent and ordinary wage earners ? which the president last month called the ?defining challenge of our time? ? has widened during his time in office.
Wages remain stagnant, barely keeping up with inflation. Average weekly earnings of workers on payrolls, measured in inflation-adjusted dollars, have edged up a scant 0.3 percent between Obama?s first month in office and November 2013, the most recent on record. And there's no clear upward trend. We reported a 0.1 percent increase in the real earnings figure in our July update six months ago, but that had evaporated by the time of our October update three months later, when the figure was exactly zero.Relatively fewer people now own their own homes. Under Obama, the home ownership rate has declined by 2.4 percentage points, to 65.1 percent in the July-September quarter, according to U.S. Census figures. (The decline actually began in 2004, when the rate peaked at 69.4 percent as the housing bubble was inflating.)And the number of low-income persons on food stamps (now called Supplemental Nutrition Assistance, or SNAP) continues at near-record levels. The most recent figures from the Department of Agriculture put the number receiving benefits at just over 47.4 million as of October ? or 15 percent of the entire U.S. population.That's down a bit from the nearly 47.8 million record set in December 2012. But it is still an increase of 48.3 percent during Obama?s presidency.
So I can't see why a liberal would love an economy where almost all the benefit flows to the top, the bottom 55% has seen it's job prospects dim, wages stagnate further and lose more ground in real terms in wealth? Bragging that companies are sitting on mountsin of cash is an argument that there isn't any productive use in our economy for additional capacity because the money all flowed to the top. That would be what I would expect from a free market kind of guy, not a liberal who supposedly is a champion of the poor and middle class.
It is a great economy if you don't happen to be poor or uneducated. Also it is the perfect Republican economy where the rich do great, the middle class limps along and now liberals are saying if anyone doesn't have a job they are just lazy. Since that is the case what good is the Democrat party?
I see they just agreed to make the middle class compete more for jobs withe TPP headed for fast track approval.
