Property Rights Win at The Supreme Court!

Endangered Species Act,

Many Celebrated the Endangered Species Act's 40th year, yet, the clear minded are looking more closely at the results.   While it is true that many species are more abundant than they were when the Act was passed in 1973, it is also true that the costs and unintended consequences of the law have burdened private property owners, our food producers,  and the economy of the United States.  Some of this is examined in the links below.  While digesting the work of others collected below will be somewhat time consuming, an understanding of the Endangered Species Act and the events and effects it has brought about will be worth while.
