[QUOTE="HoLeChit, post: 3567235, member: 35036"] Put simply, The US Federal Government owns 29% of the acreage in the US. To my understanding, the vast majority of that land is used for conservation, either directly or indirectly. If they want 30% they would need to buy, trade, or steal 1% more land, which is roughly 24,294,060 acres of combined land and water, or 37,959 square miles, a little bigger than the state of Indiana. But, in comparison, Alaska has an area of 665,384 square miles. Not only is the land in Alaska more valuable for conservation, and a bigger news story than stealing land from farmers, its also cheaper, and less damaging to the economy. [/QUOTE]
