Then perhaps pick the citation you want? Popehat are law geeks - they know their stuff. That other blog has a pretty clear agenda. Am I to take it you're no longer relying on Popehat as an authority?
I cited both links in my op. Could be you missed it right? It's a long read ... I get it.
PS: Short, quick, routine, much better that getting the full story for additional contemplation, and the question, is what I am reading the truth?
Because the ranchers entered into a contract to pay the federal government to allow them to graze their livestock on federal land. If they had entered into a similar contract with a private landholder they would be paying anywhere between 50-90% more than they pay BLM in grazing fees.
Well this people knows that and most Americans know that taxes are necessary for to pay the services the government provides.

I have no idea why you are now shifting this topic to the Fed, but I'm not interested in going that far off topic. Have a good evening
Told by who? When I write my check and by doing so transfer ownership to the IRS it ceases to be my money.
I'm sorry, my bad. It's the federal budget that belongs to the American people. That is the sell job of the day ..
