Then I take it that you favor the privatization of that public
property.  Or do you instead expect to alter human nature?  Bribing
public officials to secure an advantage in their management of public
property is SOP.  It has always happened and it always will.  The
officials have control which is of no value to them unless they can
use it to get payolla and corruption deals from the private parties
that have a potential commercial use of that public property.  They're
just doing what comes naturally.

If that land is the property of all the people, how do you justify
appropriating any of it to your own private use as a squatter?
Whatever you squat on is no longer available for the rest of the
public to use.  Or are you just unhappy about not having as much money
for bribery as the timber and resort companies?  Welcome to the real
world.  Money talks and bullshit walks.
