The left is melting down, because they don't know what is actually going on, both sides have looked at private management for a long time now when it comes to land management and the left is going bonkers when the suggestion of trying anything different that many of the failed policies of the past.

Quoted:
The left is having a meltdown over Zinke wanting to sell public lands - but reading some of what he's proposed it sounds more like he wants to contract out management of some of the public lands and parks to private management. Anyone else tried to follow this? Zinke hasn't said anything about selling public lands. There are plenty of contractors that do work on public lands already. |

I realize he hasn't said anything about selling public lands - but. Judging from the BS coming across the FB feeds his recent comments about privatizing national parks is being interpreted as 'selling public lands' and the pitchforks are coming out.

It doesn't matter what the topic or issue is, it doesn't matter what the proposed solution is, there is a meltdown over it. "Strengthen the Border" was a leftist agenda when Bill Clinton ran for president, but now it's racist because Trump wants it. Getting out of NAFTA was the battle cry for Bernie supporters, but now that Trump is doing it, it's going to destroy the country.
It is nothing but opposition, purely for the sake of opposition. There's no concern for what might actually be right or wrong for the people, as long as we're marching lock step against the opposition. Both sides are guilty of it, but the left certainly does seem to be the worse of the two at the moment. |

No, but the pitchforks are out. Seems like most all of the linked articles are about how bad and evil the idea is, in fact I have yet to see anything linked that mentions anything positive.
I have yet to see anything that actually assesses the plan. If it has even risen to the point of being a plan yet. |

GNP park concessions have been managed by private companies for over a decade, no pitchforks then.
Why not? |

Hell the liberals have been bitching because they won't let the tribes manage the Bison Range for a longtime now, they WANT the tribes to manage it, but they don't want anybody to manage lands that are better at it than the government. Damn liberals, you can never figure out which way they are going to flip or flop! Quote HistoryQuoted:

And considering that they added $10 trillion to the National debt you'd think the National Parks and Forests wuld be in great shape regading infrastructure needs. But in fact the budgets of both were cut or left flat (still went down due to inflation) during each of the 8 years of Obama. And there's plenty of info regarding past tribal employee bad performance on the Bison Range to indicate the SK tribe couldn't do a good job of managing the Bison Range. Its good that the current administration stopped that bad idea. |

The news tonight announced that Zinke has approved keeping the Upper Missouri River National Monument.
That should deflate some of the lefty loonie whining. |

I sure am with a 35 year USFS career and continued work with them. I only have 14 years of virtually full time consulting to them. But it is what it is. Over the last 14 years, I am sure we have met a few times, but that does not matter. Goodbye. Dave |

35 years in four USFS Regions, on eight National Forests from the District to SO levels, and two Regional Offices.
Maybe, maybe not No worries on this end. |

Anyway,
Zinke, has passed his first test, and decided it was best to leave the designation in place in one of the areas he was reviewing, which should calm down the liberals that were pulling their hair out. |
