McClatchy reports on deadbeat Uncle Sam's plans to buy more land:
the president wants Congress to double spending — to $900 million next year — on a conservation fund that's used to buy more property for the federal government. Currently, the government owns 635 million acres, or roughly three out of every 10 acres, with the largest chunk in Alaska.
What a priority when America has to borrow money. Shouldn't the federal government be selling land to raise cash and to get property on the tax rolls?
