I vigorously oppose the creation of Natural Asset Companies! Who elected you people to control our lands? Keep the American people in control of America's lands! We must not surrender sovereignty of our lands to any foreign government - like China or Russia! We would be sacrificing our own ability to drill for oil or have any future natural resource development to another country, who could declare these lands off limits, and thus be able to weaken our economy (even more than Biden has already)! Natural Asset Companies can - and most assuredly will - limit America's food and mineral supply because they will prevent any productive use of our lands. It is absurd to quantify and monetize ecological performance because air and water belong to all of us! They are God-given. You are proposing that these natural assets be owned and operated by corporations and environmental special interest groups. Who would regulate these Natural Asset Companies, the government? What a laugh!! NACs would only serve to benefit big government and the elite. Let's STOP putting the importance of the environment over humans! Humans are the stewards of the earth and that includes overseeing the use of the land for its food and mineral supply. God created Earth for mankind - not the other way around. This sounds like the next step in completing Obama's plan to "fundamentally change America!" He and Biden would love to seize the property rights of millions of Americans and completely strip us from our personal freedoms, just like Biden's regime tried to do under his COVID mandates! The creation of Natural Asset Companies is nothing more than a land grab for the elite! Stop trying to "sell off and sell out" America! I say NO to NACs!
