    Ever meet a "hah, you statists think you need public roads" smuglord type, who thought it was an own to call out that you mentioned public roads as if it was a self-own without having any viable way around that need that isn't even more of a public service like trains?

    They're out there, and they will sometimes resort to something fucking bazinga like "jetpacks!" for an answer. galaxy-brain

    Can confirm, have worked for the forest service. It's mostly skeleton crews to manage thousands upon thousands of acres. Even less in BLM lands, but that's also because they are usually just rented for almost nothing to ranchers and oil prospectors (hence why we call them the bureau of livestock and mining)
