I don't think it's a good idea to designate this area as a national heritage site.

I don't know much about this Kentucky Wildlands National Heritage Area Act, but it sounds like another government scheme to take away our land and restrict our freedoms. Why do they always have to meddle in everything? Can someone explain how this bill will actually benefit the people of Kentucky?
