There would be a lot of upset people. That flood was due to a barren watershed. Over-grazing is real, and very costly. I do have an interest in other social issues. It's not just environmental.
Grazing is a social issue too.
Everyone is a taxpayer, and we pay a federal agency, the Forest Service, to manage our public lands for us. They're not doing it, and I think people have a right to be upset. Grazing is my primary focus, mainly because so many people have no idea of what's going on. Grazing in the arid West has destroyed more habitat than all other land uses combined. The effects of timbering and mining together don't compare to the destruction of habitat caused by grazing, mainly because anything that can be grazed in the West is grazed.
