If you are genuinely curious then read some political theory. Such as John Locke's second treatise on government, and "For Individual Rights" (see Amazon).
I went to college, thanks. If you sincerely believe that government shouldn't have the ability to own or regulate the use of public lands, we're unlikely to have a productive conversation.
Colleges do not teach political theories contrary to the current mythology of our age, on the contrary, they pimp the theories favorable to the government they exist under.
