The operative words here are thin and manage. These forests belong to you and I and every other citizen of this nation. Why should Weyerhauser or some other giant lumber corp or their sub practically have the trees given to them? That is the way it works now.

At some point business has to realize that they have a duty first to our nation and then to the stockholders. It is only good business to operate for the long haul and not the short term.
