"’We think development of that land is inappropriate,’ said Brace Hayden, a Park Service official at Glacier. ‘You can draw your own conclusions about what's best for the American public versus what's best for this family.’"

The conclusion I draw is that the right to private property is what is important to the American public.

If Mr. Hayden prefers that his property, whatever and wherever that may be, become public, he's perfectly within his right to make it so. But to suggest that it is "inappropriate" for someone else to develop their property, though it be within an area of public domain, is a perfect and typical example of socialistic arrogance. Much more communistic than capitalistic and, hopefully, never very "American".
