Perhaps this is part of the economic stimulus bill. If we can spend $650 million on buying people converter boxes then I guess spending $123 million on public lands grazing is chicken feed.
With the current make up of the house and senate wouldn't this be a great time to reform the way public land grazing fees are set? I wonder if the western Democrats will allow that to happen? I doubt it . Everyone can justify their pork.... or beef the this matter.
