[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Congress sells chunk of the electromagnetic spectrum all the time. How else do you think your cel phone works? The US sells [b]access[/b] to public lands for logging, ranching, mining, oil and gas drilling, fishing, ect. The govt sells stuff all the time. You people are reactionary idiots. [/quote] The US derives income from public lands (and there is room for debate on the wisdom of some of how this is done) but basically they want to sell off the principle. Maybe I will just take all the income from my 401ks and IRA and have a great time for a year or two. [/quote] Agree - government [i]leases[/i] spectrum and grazing rights and logging rights and so on. This generates economic activity, and in a fair way, while also generating revenue for the government. Just selling it outright, and likely to insiders, breaks everything.[/quote]
