Really?
So according to the author it’s better for sportsmen if he, a rancher, buys or owns land. Then YOU can subsidize his ranch, subsidize his feed, subsidize his market. Oh, and to say thanks, he’ll sell you a trespass waiver, or lease to an outfitter?
But thanks again for making the point. It’s a “land grab” if YOU own the land. And the Feds poorly manage it.
That is exactly the playbook Lee/Bishop, and before them Hatch push.
So, let’s be honest Notdon. A fire burned from Indianola to Mapleton last year. $110 million to fight it. Where is Utah coming up with $110 million for 1 fire? I asked Lee. No answer. I asked Bishop and got an entire page of words that basically amounted to “I don’t know”
But back to that “land grab” article. When the Wills bro’s buy it is that a land grab? When BP does?
Further, have you been on a mtn, or a desert or lake this year? Here is what we have ACTUALLY learned from COVID. People value greatly public ground.
The LWCF is “ funded”. The fight is to get it out of control of Congress. Otherwise it’s a tax on offshore oil, that Congress will use a a slush fund.
What you keep missing is that the developers and drillers are taxed. Somehow you think it’s a better plan to let AOC decide how to spend it? Really? That’s the plan?
It’s beyond asisinine for ANY republican to pretend that $900million is just too much, as they sign on to $3 trillion in “stimulus” and are now wanting at least ANOTHER $1 trillion.
And NO. Mike Lee who was born and raised in DC, and Mitt Romney who was born and raised in Michigan, don’t care about YOUR land. They care about political power. And cash. Neither do they get by opening access to YOU.
The make believe world folks like yourself live in. Despite seeing what’s going on. Show me Romney or Lee balanced budget amendment. Show me a bill any Utah Republican has written to slash spending. Let’s not forget, the R had COMPLETE control of the country for 2 years when Trump was elected. How did spending go? Abortion ended? Obama care eliminated? Gun laws repealed?
NOPE. So let’s not pretend like any of the BS they spew now is anything other than BS.
And yup, as my grandkids pay for the $4 trillion the republicans supported just this year, at least they will have a place to camp, or fish, or hunt. Left to the Utah R, they’d sell that too, and still spend $4trillion.
