"Under a long-standing law known as the Mineral Leasing Act of 1920, anyone can “nominate” a parcel of federal land for oil-and-gas development—it doesn’t cost a thing. The rules are so lax that you don’t even have to supply your name if you want to nominate a piece of land [...] After the land is nominated, and certain review processes are completed, the B.L.M. moves to set up a lease auction [...] The minimum competitive bid for an acre is two dollars, and that’s often the price it goes for in areas like Moab."

^^^ Sweetheart deals like this need to be revised, to say the least.
 
I hope once we get Team Treason flushed out of office we can start to undo a lot of these corporate give aways, the HQ relocation thing too. It'd be nice to have a real EPA and Dept of Education since I'm wishing.

May this election's results hit Trump in his minute orange testicles like an errant bus. I really like how things are looking for the Dems taking the Senate too.

The Republican Mafia Criminal organization can be quite persistent with no holds bared on how they maintain power As long as the rugged individual of America will allow injustice to anyone, that anyone will always be them. If you want to identify a fool, find he or she who believes themselves to be a rock or an island sporting the religion of anti-socialism. They are the ones who have self-fucked baked in to their psyches.
 
It won't change. Biden may want it to change but the right people (including Congress) make way too much money with the current leasing/royalty system. Oil and gas leasing/royalties from public lands are the second largest source of general revenues (not earmarked revenues like SS) to the federal government after the income tax.
