The Bundy family used that land 80 years before the BLM was even founded.
And what about the government wanting Mr. Bundy to reduce the size of his herd by 90%? That would put him out of business right there (which is what the Agenda 21 types want).
Still carrying Dingy Harry’s water, I see.
Paul Krugman my favorite slime ball.
Scumbag Paul Krugman.
Thugman’s DemocRat plantation ain’t too pretty.
oh, I see. So small miners are welfare queens, too. Nice, NYT, but wait, wasn’t that you that trotted out a heavily edited tape and then pretended an extended tape didn’t exist? Oh, and while thinking up a response to that, please explain to us, NYT, why placer mining fees went from $100 to $1600 in one year, when anyone can go camp on that land at any time and, since it isn’t guarded 24/7, can pick up anything they want? why the raise in fees, other than to force claim-holders to abandon claims back to the BLM?
The author can’t even write an opening paragraph without telling multiple lies.
Now ... the real issue here is that BLM (among other agencies) is acting more like a hostile occupying army than like public servants. The whole agency needs to be disarmed and disbanded.
I believe Bundy owns his own ranch, but had a deal, for many years, to allow his cows to graze on public lands. He was happy to pay the grazing fees, to the State of Nevada, because he had expected the BLM to actually MANAGE the land, not just own it and charge ranchers for the use of it, without any stewardship at all.
Harry and his gang in Nevada gets the BLM to run people off "federal" land and in the process make it impossible for the ranchers to make any money by
setting limits on the size of their herds.
The ranchers are forced to sell out to a Reid front company for pennies on the dollar, and Reid sells to the BLM for big bucks.
How many of Bundy's neighbors were forced out of business and lost their property?
Clippers’ Donald Sterling is a typical white liberal elite - the New York Times hates that truth.

Hey Paul Krugman why aren’t you writing about all the democrats who have taken money and favors from Donald Sterling?
