How can Nevada be considered a state when the
federal government owns 80% it? The
answer is it can’t. What’s even more
astonishing is the history of how this territory got its statehood. It was a fraud! Nevada didn’t qualify! It was done for political purposes! The law in 1864 required a population of
60,000 for a territory to become a state.
Nevada only had about 40,000. On top of that, Nevada made a deal with
the devil. Martin Armstrong of Precious
Metals wrote the following:
The votes at the end
of the day demonstrate that they never needed Nevada. Nonetheless, within the
provisions of the Statehood Act of March 21, 1864 that brought Nevada into the
voting fold, we see the source of the problem today. This Statehood Act retained
the ownership of the land as a territory for the federal government. In return
for the Statehood that was really against the law, the new state surrendered
any right, title, or claim to the unappropriated public lands lying within
Nevada. Moreover, this cannot be altered without the consent of the Feds.
Hence, the people of Nevada cannot claim any land whatsoever because
politicians needed Nevada for the 1864 election but did not want to hand-over
anything in return. This was a typical political one-sided deal.
How ironic is it that the U.S. Senate should be run
by a man whose entire career has been devoted to expanding federal power by any
means possible? That’s how Nevada was
created, and that’s why the rule of law means nothing to people like Harry
Reid.
Mr. Armstrong goes into detail on why the federal
government has no claims to public lands in Nevada. You can read his article by clicking the link

However, I
believe it would be poetic justice to expropriate statehood from Nevada and
kick Senator Harry Reid out of Washington D.C.
Nothing would give me more pleasure than a footprint on his backside.
