That's the wrong perspective. The PUBLIC owns the land. Without public land, Yosemite would be Disney and be out of reach to many people who can now access it with a tent a low daily fee. Hunting would be confined to those who can pay $5,000 for a ranch and a guide. Public land allows the average citizen to access the beauty of the land

OK why does the federal government need to own millions of acres of grazing land? And don't tell me that they take better care of it. Tragedy of the commons. It's well known that when someone owns something, then he takes better care of it.
I'm not saying that National Parks should be made public. But they are a small portion of the land that the feds owns thru the BLM, USFS and other agencies.
