BLM Seed Permits, Grazing Battles and Wild Horses with Hank Vogler
Nevada sheep rancher Hank Vogler joins Trent Loos from New Zealand to expose how federal land management is hurting Western ranchers. Hank explains how the Bureau of Land Management sold seed-harvesting permits in Antelope Valley without consulting the sheepherders who depend on that winter range, and details his half-million-dollar court fight over grazing permit restrictions. The pair discuss Madeline Pickens’ Mustang Monument wild horse project, California’s Delta Smelt water policy, and energy monopolies, including Warren Buffett’s MidAmerican Energy and a controversial Nebraska Sandhills transmission line. They also debate capitalism versus government intervention, from the Teapot Dome scandal to today’s economy.
