Are Federal Lands America's Balance Sheet?

Margaret Byfield returns to "Financial Rebellion" for a show focused on government ownership and management of federal lands, particularly in the western U.S. — over 80 and 90 percent in some states. Some circulating proposals aim to strengthen local economies but are not without their problems. In this episode, Margaret underscores the importance of keeping this property under the jurisdiction of American citizens as well as ensuring agencies like the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) stay focused on the many uses for these areas — such as grazing, minerals, timber and recreation. She also provides tips for parents looking to educate their children about agriculture. Be sure to watch!
