Oh What A Beautiful Day

Oh what a beautiful day" land, lotsof land, free land yes that was the call that went out all over in the winter of 1888 and early spring of 1889, why? Because it was the Oklahoma land rush, the opening of the last part of the "Indian Territory" for settlement, the land rush was in 1885 the 2nd in 1885 the one that we all remember in 1893 .

 

The land was opened to help the country out of a deep recession, just think what would happen today if government owned land were open for a "rrush! A real stimlus!

The sad part is that the people of todays' society would ruin more of the land thatn the good it would do.

Brenda:  So, we "opened up" the last part of the "Indian Territory"... land that rightfully belonged to the Indians, so the "settlers" could grab it... all to help end a recession.  Oh, how wonderful.  Natalie Maines was right.

By the way... do you have any land that we could "open up"... declare it "free land" and allow someone else to "settle it?"

I am not sure it would stimulate the economy by selling off government land.  Most likely a bunch of big oil drilling companies would go in there are start destroying it. The market has picked up quite a bit but there are still millions of empty homes throughout the sand states and the rust belt that are just sitting there abandonned.

There is lots of government land that could be sold pretty cheap to help our bottom line in the budget.

Future generations will want the government owned properties as parks as the population continues to grow.
