Blimey... that would be half the British Government gone in one fell swoop then?
I don't agree with the execution... It's barbaric.

Amy Goodman’s New Column: “One Man’s Bid to Aid the Environment
Tim DeChristopher is an economics student at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. He had just finished his last final exam before winter break. One of the exam questions was: If the oil and gas companies are the only ones who bid on public lands, are the true costs of oil and gas exploitation reflected in the prices paid?
DeChristopher was inspired. He finished the exam, threw on his red parka and went off to the controversial Bureau of Land Management land auction that the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance called “the Bush administration’s last great gift to the oil and gas industry. Instead of joining the protest outside, he registered as a bidder, then bought 22,000 acres of public land. That is, he successfully bid on the public properties, located near the Arches and Canyonlands National Parks and Dinosaur National Monument, and other pristine areas. The price tag: more than $1.7 million.

One might think twice if the payoff for getting caught was something you wouldn't want to sacrifice. A few might die, but I'll bet this would put the brakes on alot of others trying the same stuff.

I prefer to strip the bastards of all their assets and share them amongst the people they ripped off. Then 25 years in a hard labour camp. Sterilisation so they can't breed any more cheating spawn would also be a good option.
(Minks, i am quite hot on wildlife but can you tell me the gorgeous creature in your pic? Is it a snow Lynx??)

And cast them unto the desert of a thousand scorpians with no underwear, shelter, food or water. May their bones parch and rot in the sand of a million toilers.
