I will concede that the Clause gives the Congress authority to transfer ownership of places like the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge  or even Yosemite or Yellowstone, for that matter  to states or ranchers or oil companies. I would oppose such measures, for I think it would make us poorer as a nation. Still, if a majority of the people supports and persuades our Congress and President to get rid of the public lands, well, that's how our Constitution is supposed to work.
