I would like to see the gummint get a fair price for the stuff companies take from public lands, like timber, oil, minerals, grazing and such. Not much in favor of selling any off, but transferring some to the states is okay, as long as it can't be sold by them afterwards. I've seen too much public property in the East sold off in sweetheart deals to developer friends of public officials to go for that. To paraphrase Chico Marx, they're honest, but you've got to watch them a little bit.


What fresh Hell is this?
