“I’ll tell you what I would do – I will make a deal with the United States Congress. I will exchange all of my Social Security payments in the future for a hundred acres of land in Alaska anywhere — and they can keep the mule they promised my ancestors. Just give me 100 acres of land and I will give up all of my rights to Social Security.”
~Professor Walter E. Williams commenting on this:
“The federal government owns nearly 650 million acres of land, which according to the government’s own website, is almost 30 percent of the land area of the United States.”
