Explain both of these points.

Well, here's a map of how it shakes out. The situation in the west is just terrible. There's no good reason I can think of for the federal government to own any land in any fully incorporated state, and if there's a compelling reason for decisions about land in Nevada to be made in an imperial city some 2000 miles away instead of in Carson City, I'd like to hear it. Ownership of any public land should have been transferred to the state government the moment they became a state.
