Did you know that there is a “1971 Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act?” Probably not, but then when one considers the volume of legislation created just at the federal level — legislation that remains in force, the normal reaction would be one of astonishment, of being utterly overwhelmed, of one’s eyes just glazing over. No wonder congressmen and senators have no idea what they’re voting on much of the time.
Anyway, apparently we have a crisis of excess horses and burrows running wild in western states. Enter the Bureau of Land Management and a dispute they have with the Humane Society of the United States.
Here’s the crisis in a nutshell for your consideration.
They moved them, let them over graze and now have to cover their assets.
There are plenty of people who would love to adopt those horses.
The BLM could work in conjunction with the Humane Society to sell them.
$300 for stallions, $400 for mares, discounts on purchases of 10 or more…
Put the money earned from their sale toward the national debt…
Even if they sell them at a flat $300 per, at 45,000 that’s 13.5 MILLION DOLLARS.
Bet it would cost more to humanely euthanize them.
Figures, they will make lotz of money on dog food off these horses ,government is 4 money ,no onez lyfe matterz -just the greed of money…
Sell the horse s
Autocorrect won’t let me cuss!! Was supposed to say asses
