Grazing fees another form of welfare

Thanks for publishing, “Court ruling may decrease sheep grazing” (Herald, online, March 20). Just like historical mines, historical sheep grazing is finally being recognized as the menace upon the land that it is, as well as a taxpayer funded government subsidy.

Heavily discounted federal grazing fees, (approximately 10 percent of market value) are simply just Food Stamps in another form.
