Prospecting on Public Lands could take a Hit.

Here in the Eastern U.S. they are makeing it harder to dredge and gold pan. Every year they pass more restrictions. This year it has been banned altogether in many of the few remaining areas. At the same time I read some PDF documents where big multi-national corporations are quietly buying up all the mineral rights from the states and private holders. Me suspects Corporate Feudalism is on the horizon. Corporations don't wan't us to have access to nothing, own nothing, or do anything they don't ok or can profit off of. Discovery channel showed how almost everyone in Great Britain lives in well planned out towns, use public transport for the most part, and only the super rich get to have country get away cottages or live outside compact towns or citys at all. They were talking about how great it would be if we learned to do the same. Real reason behind the houseing market crash perhaps? By the way, here in the east, local governments are the bigger culprits especially in Georgia. Feds are beginning to think about kicking even panners out of our National Forests though. I think the elites don't like us even hikeing in or visiting in our National Parks anymore.

They keep it up and the US will soon be in a Revolt like the mid east countries are doing also.
