Gods Green Earth

As a human being,
one would assume they're entitled to the benefits of "gods green earth"
just as their ancestors before them were.

My biggest complaint was with nearly every local beach,
and the fact that if you intend to visit by car you must pay in some places upwards of $15-$20.
For someone who really doesn't intend to stay at the beach for more than an hour,
is this toll justified especially when you consider most beaches remain unkempt?
Why is this fee not covered by federal tax dollars?

Recently, with the advent of many states becoming billion dollars in debt
its been announced that in the event of a shutdown of an individual states government,
state parks would be off limits.
Could you imagine, protected land, and by protected I mean:
protected from corporations trying to reap the harvest.

With the passing of the Clear Act,
the government seeks to subsidize more of the free world
by appropriating more of the peoples land,
setting the American dream further out of reach then ever imagined.
I wonder, is eminent domain on the horizon?
Will this land then be sold to foreign banks in the fashion of the Greek dilemma?
Or will our government simply pimp Mother Nature?

Unbeknownst to me was the fact that in some states
it's actually against the law to divert or collect rainwater.

The current corrupt system has salted the earth,
and it will take millennia of recovery
for the true fruits of our labors to ripen.
