Now that's sum funny stuff right there~!!
Revenge of the REAL owners of the land!
The ESA is first, a bad act, and secondly mostly been used to prohibit us from using our lands and waterways! Their record of species restoration is deplorable, especially when the weighed with the costs of it.
The act is nothing but abused by groups desiring some outcome/control over land and resources that do not belong to them! The same groups use this act to cost us billions of dollars. As well as stealing/seizing control of land that does not belong to them.
I'll stop for now. :)
