Due to protected federal public lands and, of course, the beautiful environment, people are beginning to live more by nature and the wilderness. They get paid more and employment rates are higher than those of not federally protected lands. With federal protection, lands and jobs get funded, calling people's attentions towards them. Aside from the economic status of these lands, they are beautiful, breathtaking, and know how to capture one's attention. Although this seems to be the ideal lifestyle, these public acres of land are being used in order to build companies. All these companies are what jobs come from and that is why employment rates are high. It seems like a beneficial enforcement, but is it really? Nature is being abused to create and stimulate jobs. Beautiful land is being taken away for jobs. Already the world has been destroyed for money, and sadly the rest of what is left is being abused, also.
