Forest Service head resigning

Good. Eliminate the USFS altogether.

US Forest Service head resigns following misconduct investigation - CNNPolitics

You do know the USFS charter is to promote balanced use of national resources (timber harvesting, water conservation, hunting, fish and wildlife, recreation).
Getting rid of it? Sure, we can go back to the 1700's. Burn and cut the trees, strip the soil, kill the wildlife, build stone walls on barren land...

Or...we could just kick a guy out that can't keep his junk in his....pants.
Gee, where have I heard this story before??

Or we could just sell off the land and let private owners can manage it. They would do a far better job.

And cut all the trees down, sell off the timber for profit..or clear the land for development, thereby destroying all the wildlife, affecting water run off, strip the
top soil, and just making things look like shit.

Or, we could remember some history.

You seem to believe that people would destroy their own land. They aren't as stupid as the federal government.

What "history" are you referring to? You mean where the federal government allowed people to rape public land? Note the word "public." When have you noticed people raping their own land?

The law of nature gave them that right. The federal government has no authority to own anything.

Bullshit. The federal government was not created to be the owner of the land; it was created expressly to get the “right of soil” out of the hands of a British king, during Colonial times.

It was what the king believed to be his "sovereign right" to own, to tax and control the use of land that directly led to the Declaration of Independence in 1776, and the federal government should not own land other than that authorized in the Constitution

Uh...why do you think the government stepped in? To prevent people from raping the land!!
Of course people will destroy their land. Whether it be for farming, grazing, ranching, timber profits, firewood, land development.
The average land owner doesn't think about the long term implications of the consumption of their land.
They think about the $$.

One of the founding tenets of the US Forest Service. Multiple Use.

Actually all it did was transfer ownership from the king to the newly created colonies and their central government.

The Louisiana Purchase encompassed 530,000,000 acres of territory in North America that theUnited States purchased from France in 1803 for $15 million.

President Jefferson, however, was in a quandary. He had always advocated strict adherence to the letter of the Constitution, yet there was no provision empowering him to purchase territory.

The Louisiana Purchase Treaty would not be final until it was ratified by the Senate, funded by the House of Representatives, and signed by the President.

Government didn't "step in." Government owned the land from the beginning. Government mismanaged the land from the beggining. Government is the original source of the problem. If government says "anyone who wants to can cut down all the treees on this plot of land," how is it the fault of anyone but government when all the trees are cut down?

You're dead wrong. People do not destroy their own land. Land owners do consider the long term consequences of anything they do to their land. You must believe people aren't concerned about how much money their land will return in the future. That's idiotic.

Only politicians don't care about long term consequences. They only care about the next election.

Yeah, just concrete over it, we don't need that fucking oxygen the trees produce. We're better than that. We're invincible (until we die).

Most Department of Interior, USFS, and National Park Service employees these days are Obama-era holdovers who still believe in "global warming" and Woodsy the Owl.

I see a great opportunity for some cutting of useless government spending here.

So far the forest service has limited any logging or clearing and caused so much underbrush we now get massive fires instead of controlled ones. So basically we are are back to the early days when the forest actually took care of this itself...by burning it all off. Why the hell do we need to pay someone to let nature happen?

Thank you Bill Clinton.

How many magic windmills would it take to replace a modern nuclear reactor? I'm curious.

A special kind of Rainbow Darter was found in Big Darby Creek and now the whole creek is protected and given the name National Scenic River. Motor boats are illegal but canoes and kayaks are legal. Fishing and hunting and swimming are illegal and letting a turtle loose in Big Darby is a big fine and jail time.
