Just thinking about all the nonsense going on with the pipeline and such, and I had an Idea.
I am wondering why those states affected can't demand their lands back from the Federal Government. There should be no "Federal Lands" withing the boundaries of a State. The people of that state own the land. The states should take their lands back and then do with them what they deem best for their people. Why does the Federal Government need to own any land?
Just some random thoughts about all this.
