Wrong yet again!!!!HHmmmm.... Domestic terrorists..... Looking back into history, I imagine that an America claimed to be a British colony, and having England forcing TAXES. LAWS and REGULATIONS on the colonists, WITHOUT the colonists having a F'N word to say about what was being shoved down their throats, and having said colonists RESIST these unjustified acts, should classify THEM as DOMESTIC TERRORISTS.... Seems the correlation between Bundy and the FOUNDING FATHERS is quite similar, and without STRONG MEN of resolve and fairness, taking actions against ESTABLISHED, UNJUST LAW, THIS VERY COUNTRY, would NOT be here as we know it today!.... Next time some scumbag says something stupid about the patriots standing up for OUR RIGHTS, remind the bastard where HE came from, and what he would be today without those REVOLUTIONARIES!.... They won't understand it, they're brain dead, Kool-Aid drinkers, that only want to take from earners, but gentlemen, you and others WILL get it. Thank you FOUNDING DOMESTIC TERRORISTS for what you did, the laws you broke, and the tyranny you were able to overthrow, may WE THE PEOPLE be as effective today!
The founders believed in the right to property, not the right to steal stuff off someone else's property.
He didn't steal anything off someone else's property, he's part of WE THE PEOPLE, and grazed cattle there that for decades were allowed to roam anywhere and eat anything! Did any of us VOTE for these changes, did Congress approve this as a Federal law, or were they simply IMPLAMENTED by the BLM on there own, just as the EPA does?
They were IMPLANTED by St Ronnie!!! Why do you think they are called the Reagan grazing fees??????
Executive Order 12548 -- Grazing Fees
February 14, 1986
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and laws of the United States of America, and in order to provide for establishment of appropriate fees for the grazing of domestic livestock on public rangelands, it is ordered as follows:
Section 1. Determination of Fees. The Secretaries of Agriculture and the Interior are directed to exercise their authority, to the extent permitted by law under the various statutes they administer, to establish fees for domestic livestock grazing on the public rangelands which annually equals the $1.23 base established by the 1966 Western Livestock Grazing Survey multiplied by the result of the Forage Value Index (computed annually from data supplied by the Statistical Reporting Service) added to the Combined Index (Beef Cattle Price Index minus the Prices Paid Index) and divided by 100; provided, that the annual increase or decrease in such fee for any given year shall be limited to not more than plus or minus 25 percent of the previous year's fee, and provided further, that the fee shall not be less than $1.35 per animal unit month.
Sec. 2. Definitions. As used in this Order, the term:
(a) ``Public rangelands'' has the same meaning as in the Public Rangelands Improvement Act of 1978 (Public Law 95 - 514);
(b) ``Forage Value Index'' means the weighted average estimate of the annual rental charge per head per month for pasturing cattle on private rangelands in the 11 Western States (Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Washington, Oregon, and California) (computed by the Statistical Reporting Service from the June Enumerative Survey) divided by $3.65 and multiplied by 100;
(c) ``Beef Cattle Price Index'' means the weighted average annual selling price for beef cattle (excluding calves) in the 11 Western States (Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Washington, Oregon, and California) for November through October (computed by the Statistical Reporting Service) divided by $22.04 per hundred weight and multiplied by 100; and
(d) ``Prices Paid Index'' means the following selected components from the Statistical Reporting Service's Annual National Index of Prices Paid by Farmers for Goods and Services adjusted by the weights indicated in parentheses to reflect livestock production costs in the Western States: 1. Fuels and Energy (14.5); 2. Farm and Motor Supplies (12.0); 3. Autos and Trucks (4.5); 4. Tractors and Self-Propelled Machinery (4.5); 5. Other Machinery (12.0); 6. Building and Fencing Materials (14.5); 7. Interest (6.0); 8. Farm Wage Rates (14.0); 9. Farm Services (18.0).
Sec. 3. Any and all existing rules, practices, policies, and regulations relating to the administration of the formula for grazing fees in section 6(a) of the Public Rangelands Improvement Act of 1978 shall continue in full force and effect.
Sec. 4. This Order shall be effective immediately.
