I would agree with that premise. The federal government has a ton of wild land territory aside from national parks that is simply not being used or available to the public. If that was made available to the market, prices would drop dramatically tomorrow.

Also, another case of using the state to maintain artificial scarcity by holding vast swaths of land off the market.

Undisciplined

Another case example of older generations with money buying up resources and driving market prices, pushing out younger farmers. Viva capitalism.
