    The western land issue is one of the chief things that makes them popular out west. There’s more federal land than private and state combined.

        If someone else owns more of your state than your own citizens, do you really have a state? It’s easy for us to pontificate in states where there’s hardly any federal land and the issue is reversed. There needs to be more federal land in the East where ecosystems mean more and less in the West.
