I'm all for preserving appropriate land for public use. Strange that no appropriate land is found in New York, New Jersey or other states in that area. It almost all comes from west of the Mississippi. And still the people from NY, NJ, Md, De, Ct and so on are the ones demanding more land should be taken from Ut, Co, Mt, Id, Az and NM. I will concede that Cali at least does give up lots of land, tho almost all in non-coastal non-liberal parts of the state.

Ah, all of Cali's coast are public. Rich home and land owners cannot block public access to their frontage to the ocean. Not to mention the many coastal state parks, public beaches and reserved marshlands.

Wonder also how the "take from (the states presumably)" actually takes place.
