[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who's proposing "Venezuela?"

Nobody.

Pretty idiotic statement to say "See Venezuela, how's that working out."[/quote]

Really?  I've heard 'the Government can crush you', 'the benevolent government gave out that land', etc.  Clearly, no one understands that the more that's under government control, the more power the government has over you. [/quote]

What would you have proposed to be done with land captured from the Mexican government? It was transferred to US government ownership and then leased to others. What arrangement would you propose that is better than that?

Do I want to argue with someone who supports a socialist for President?  No. Your judgement is already poor.

Suffice it to say, Harry Reid could have easily fixed the Nevada land issue and didn't. Which tells you all you need to know[/quote]

Translation: I actually can't think of anything to say so I am going to cast about ad hominems and blame Harry Reid. Guess what? Cliven Bundy could have easily fixed it as well.

We were TALKING about Nevada land and the Feds vs State. If you look it up, Bundy was willing and had been paying taxes to the state until they refused to take it. Again, Reid could have fixed the problem. How much of the land in Nevada do the Feds own, Jeff? More than 50%? 70%?

Sanders is a self-admitted socialist. You support Sanders. You are more than a big government guy - you want a government takeover via socialism. It's people like myself that want to maintain our Constitution and our law.  Truth is truth. [/quote]

It's not "Nevada land" - the state of Nevada does not own it, and Bundy's claim that he was "trying to pay the state of Nevada but they wouldn't take his money" is bogus.  Nevada does not lease the land and has nothing to do with the grazing permit.  Nevada also has no legal claim on the land, and this is specifically referenced in the Nevada State Constitution.

As for your comments about "socialism" - every time you throw that term around disparagingly it tells the world you don't know what "democratic socialism" i.e. Bernie Sanders means.   Here's a hint - think Sweden (which  has plenty of capitalism, private enterprise and entrepreneurs, luxury goods, multimillionaire magnates, and some of the highest living standards in the world) - if you're thinking of Maoist China or Soviet Russia you are totally on the wrong track.[/quote]
