This Great Work

It’s time to continue the trek west.
The western lands should be open for new colonization and settling.
Most of the western farms haven’t matured into anything other than parasites on the Federal Government. Many of the western states - like Montana - provide very little good for the general welfare and most of its land stands empty and unused.
The same can be said for Nevada, Arizona, Nebraska and large portions of southern Indiana.
It is time for the government to start land grants again and open up the west for settlers and development.
The settling of this country is not over - not by a longshot. It’s time to move those corporate farms that are raking in government subsidies out of the way so that Americans can take the land and do something meaningful and useful with it.
Packing millions into the cities in order to bilk them out of a weekly pay check isn’t working.
The western settlers were supposed to settle their land and raise up towns and cities.
Because of laziness and ignorance - many of the original dreams of the settlers that went out there have deteriorated into dustbowl towns and havens for freeloading government handout programs.
It is time to conquer our frontier and settle the new lands and raise cities from the broken lands and out of the dust which blows across forlorn wastes - abandoned by cowards and bureaucrats.
The land belongs to us and it is time it is made available - along with access to raw materials to make this great work come true.
