Well, if our entire ranch was developed with the same amenities per square foot, I guess it would be fair.
On the otherhand, I wish every acre of ranchland would be worth what an acre of developed city would be worth. But, then where would the cattle graze? At the golf course?
Some will just not "get it"....ever.
This is America. When a person puts himself into a position to better his way of life, or own a business, or build an empire, then it comes the hard way, whether from education, or taking the risk, or by busting your butt.
It won't ever come to those that don't pay their dues, and just sit back and pizz & moan about how unfair it is that Michael Dell owns an empire with Dell Computers, and why doesn't our govt. give a slice of that to me? It seems that the democrats got a huge lesson in that very concept just yesterday, if memory serves me right....
In reflection on the original thread topic, I have to say that I have re-thought the way that bend over backwards to be nice to hunters, and help them all I can, even when I see the destruction that is wrought by some of them. I'll continue to do that with those that I know respect the land and act like they may have a vested interest in the direction it takes. But, if I encounter attitudes like some that were displayed here in this thread, I can guarantee you that helping them will be furthest thing from my mind....I mean I already have the reputation, I might as well live up to it, right?
