Let’s be civil.
The Flathead Beacon encourages vigorous discussion and lively debate, but we will delete comments that attack other readers, make accusations we can’t verify, stray too far off topic, criticize local businesses (call them if you have a problem), convict someone of a crime, use profanity or are simply judged to be in bad taste. We don’t always have someone moderating comments, so we ask for your help: If you see a comment that violates these ground rules, or you simply deem it offensive, please e-mail webmaster [at] flatheadbeacon.com.

Lets borrow more money from the Chinese so the wacko leftists that now call themselves
“conservationists” can lock up more land.

Hi Russ,

I’m sure if you read the article, you would see that this land will still produce saw logs, and it will
keep public access open to all. Also, the Land and Water Conservation Fund is funded through the
off-shore leasing receipts. There is no deficit spending for LWCF, and thankfully, Senator Tester and
Senator Baucus helped ensure the future of this program by getting approximately $350 million into
LWCF.
