     It’s actually less than a third and a lot of it is conservation, national parks, and that sort of thing.

     I hate the argument that developing national parks is the solution to land being too expensive.
     
     All you're going to do is destroy nature to push the problem on the next generation.

     Is anyone actually arguing that? It doesn’t make much sense since they tend to be p far from urban areas.

     I am confused as to your point, you seem to be saying the government is rescuing land that has been destroyed by greedy corporations but are then saying that corporations do a better job of taking care of the land than the government despite that contradicting your previous statement, and somehow this is supposed to convince me developing national parks is going to solve the issue of corporations being allowed to inflate the price of housing by buying up home units and renting them?

     @KitlerIs6 @arzachel @bot if you knew how many manufacturing sites and large scale lots of land were turned into Superfund sites(ie expropriated by government because corporations turned then into uninhabitable lots of garbage) you might not feel that way. There are countless historical examples of large swathes of land being taken care of best in the hands of private individuals government and corporations so nothing to preserve them although corporations do a much better job of maintaining them than governments do because of it serving the corporations best interests not to destroy the land
