550 million acres, all by executive fiat. It is good to be king.
Per the chart, Bush 43 was also profligate, with Jimmy Carter third. This is a power that needs to be reined in.
I would guess that most of the land pre-empted in this way over the years has been Forest Service or BLM lands that are being withdrawn from regular management systems.

What do US citizens get in return for the loss of productive use of this land?

paraphrasing the article, “Reid argued that any pushback would be minimized while the Bundys were incarcerated”
There you have it.

90% of this land should be released back to the states.

President Obama on Tuesday created new national monuments in a sacred tribal site in southeastern Utah and in a swath of Nevada desert, after years of political fights over the fate of the sites. Blanding?
