I would like to know the total amount of natural resources that are located on these lands.
A country rich in resources that refuses to use them. Stupid Americans.

My thoughts, but it may be a conversion of National Forests into National Parks, which, as I understand, are off limits to anything commercial.

This is an incredibly brilliant plan hatched to take away all revenues of these lands that might be generated from the underlying minerals.
America does not need this revenue, right?
See Obama talking about increasing revenues the same day!

We conservatives seem too quick to attribute to ignorance what is more easily and naturally explained by pure evil and avarice. The eco/libs just want the land off-limits to human development and natural resource exploitation, plain and simple.

“After nearly a decade during which our parks were taken for granted and our range lands were scarred by a spider-web of roads and (drilling) well pads,” the lands bill “represents a new dawn for America’s heritage and American values,” said Rep. Nick Rahall, D-W.Va., chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee.
American values now seem to be defined as protecting urban backyard playgrounds so the masses can tear it apart just for a weekend of fun. No roads plus no logging equals a bonfire of epic proportions in the near future. Time to start up a hotshot firefighters company to meet the upcoming demand and tap into that bottomless well of federal money.

It wouldn’t surprise me to see the eco nuts win over the feds and stop all fire suppression in National Parks and wilderness areas because that’s “natures” way, oh how I hate these nuts.
