Each year the federal Government adds money to the
budget to purchase land for what they call public use, but is that actually
true? Of course we all know about National Parks but there is also other
classifications that fall under the management of the Bureau of Land
Management.
BLM controls National Parks, grazing rights, mineral
rights, wilderness areas, and National Conservation Lands. They are basically
the Police of the Department of the Interior. It may surprise you that they
control 243 Million acres, many times the size of many of our states.
The Federal Government owns the majority of the land
in 12 States including, Nevada, Colorado, Alaska, Arizona, Idaho, Montana,
New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Wyoming, Washington, and California. These state
percentages of Federal Land Ownership range from 35% in New Mexico to a high of
85% in Nevada.
In addition to the federal land ownership the BLM also
controls the underground mineral rights under 700 million acres that also
includes private lands.
Ranchers are seeing a decrease in their grazing
permits recently as the Federal Government tries to strong arm them out of the
very thing that insures their existence. Bureaucratic edict is one thing our
country has been battling for years. The government tries backdoor methods to
deny the very livelihood of farmers and ranchers, through environmental regulations
and land leases.
With ranchers and farmers seeing decreased income as a
direct result of regulations it is only a matter of time before the Feds gobble
up their properties through bankruptcy.
Now mind you these large percentages you are seeing
here doesn’t even begin to include land owned by the states. These figures are
almost impossible to find as they are increasing exponentially also.
We have already seen the Biden Administration increase
the land grabs in areas that are beneficial for oil and gas exploration only to
lock them down to never allow permitting.
The biggest question is this….with almost 24% of our
states owned by the federal government what states are next and how soon will
they be the majority land owners in all of the United States?
Once the land grab is complete we become no different
than any other Communist country as what was once yours will now be theirs.
