: What kind of person is it, anyway, who thinks that he must possess

I don't know, but when you meet or hear of one, please let me know.
ME, I don't need to possess EVERYthing ... I'll settle for west of the
Rocky Mountains ...

They already are. Env'tal groups, as well as most other special interest
groups, simply aren't making correct use of them.
They insist on forcing others to give up their property in the name of
some "higher good," like Monestaries of the last century converting
aboriginies to Christianity or Death. Instead, they should simply
acquire the property using legal and moral means. Once acquired, end of
story.
It's so damn simple it's painful. No control over the lives of fellow
humans that way. Too bad.
