Just carrying forward the Lyndon Johnson philosophy,”They’re all my helicopters” to the country in general.
The United States is a federation of STATES. The land belongs to the individual states. The US feral government should own ZERO land.
Except that Carter didn’t assume the presidency until January 20, 1977.
It's the People's land...not the governments.
All Federal lands should revert to the states.
I support the Sagebrush Rebellion, then and now. The federal government should not own any lands not directly pertaining to the restrictions placed on it by the Constitution. Take ‘em back!
Sooner or later these liberal skeeves are going to stumble onto the issue that causes all hell to break loose.
And that is exactly what they are trying to do.
Wiki:
The Federal Land Policy and Management Act, or FLPMA (Pub.L. 94–579), is a United States federal law that governs the way in which the public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management are managed. The law was enacted in 1976 by the 94th Congress and is found in the United States Code under Title 43. The Federal Land Policy and Management Act phased out homesteading in the United States by repealing the pre-existing Homestead Acts.
Good catch. Found this:
FLPMA was then
signed by the President on October 21,1976

That would make President Ford the signer.
The Sagebrush Rebellion didn’t hit the papers & magazine covers ‘till spring of 1978.
About the same time as Howard Jarvis & his tax revolt.
Same year as the Bakke decision against quotas.
And in 1978 the `Equal Rights Amendment’ failed to achieve ratification & went down in flames.
Jimmah Carter still had more than two years left to screw this country up, & he did. But Ronald Reagan was ready & waiting in the wings. 1980 was sweet victory.
Conference report agreed to in House: House agreed to conference report.
10/1/1976 Conference report agreed to in Senate: Senate agreed to conference report.
10/1/1976 Cleared for White House
10/12/1976 Measure presented to President.
10/21/1976 Signed by President.
10/21/1976 Public law 94-579.
.
Use the same tactics against the criminal federal government that they use against us.
States can send in their state bureaucrats to close down BLM and Dept. of Interior buildings for failing to meet state health and building codes. Make these federal fascists camp out in tents. Then condemn those tents as unsafe and unfit for human habitation.
Sergeantdave,
Good idea!
All y’all, ping to this post!
Turn the tables on the feds....
I'm okay with the Constitution's guidance on military installations/dockyards, and D.C. itself. Other than that all National Parks, Forests, Monuments, Memorials, BLM land, watersheds/waterways, everything, should go to the states. The big issue is infrastructure (interstate highways and bridges) - not quite sure how to adjust for that. Maybe some type of agreement between states for funding, but keep the fed out of it.

> 10/21/1976 Signed by President.
So Gerald Ford signed this just a week or two before the election he lost to James Earl “Nucular” Carter.
Ford deserved to lose, but too bad we got stuck with such a pathetic specimen of sputum and pablum as Carter.
Thus proving this is Jimmuh Carter’s third term.
Must be said over and over. The Federal Government has become too big and powerful. It is closer to communists countries in it's control of each and every American. Dictatorship is has no place in our Country.
