New Mexico bill calls for study of controlling federal land

[jon_berzerk]

More Republicans screwing the taxpayer for the benefit of the rich.

Rep. Bill McCamley, D-Mesilla Park, cast the dissenting vote. He said the state would be no better off when it comes to preventing things like fires. He pointed to Texas, which has a small share of federal land and still experienced a record fire season in 2011.

"I think this is a thinly veiled attempt to transfer lands to the private sector," he said after the meeting. "If you give it to the state, the state is a lot more likely to sell it and I really am very worried about the future of these public lands if they're sold off to the highest bidder."

If you have a customer waiting for it, like Vegas.

I'm part of a syndicate that owns 200,000 acres of land with 455 billion gallons/yr of water rights south of Eureka, NV. We're waiting to sell water to Vegas as soon as the pipeline is built.

What our resident Canadians are writing about is completely undeveloped land. Kind of a 'build it and they will come' bullshit. Hasn't worked out very well for those that have, such as Cowboys Dream B&B in Alamo.

Cowboys Dream

The place is owned by a taxi/limo company in Vegas. They even offer free limo rides for the 90 mile trek from Vegas. It's five star. It's barely making it.

If that were true then California wouldn't be in extreme drought for the last 5 years.

Nevada is already being heavily mined.

We even have our own organization.
