And here's yet another case of theft by government

under cover of "It's for teh CHILDREN, and your own good!"
Have you heard of the “Great Outdoors Initiative”? Chances are, you haven’t.

At a “listening session” in New Hampshire last week, government bureaucrats trained their sights on millions of private forest land throughout the New England region. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack crusaded for “the need for additional attention to the Land and Water Conservation Fund — and the need to promptly support full funding of that fund.”
