    :: Monday, April 21, 2003 ::

    The Strategy To Privatize The Public Domain The coordinated and decades-long effort to privatize the public lands of the United States, nearly a third of the nation, is now bearing fruit. The Sagebrush Rebellion of the 1970s that sought to transfer power to states and local units, and that provided the Reagan Administration with James Watt as Interior Secretary, morphed into the Wise Use Movement that sprinkled antigovernment grassroots organizations across the nation. Wise Use, in turn, has given rise to so-called "free- market environmentalism" that consists largely of a network of corporations and conservative foundations and think tanks intent on gaining control of the public domain.
