The worst part is that many of these forestry jobs paid for themselves with tourism revenue.
Don't need em if we're gonna clear cut them so new golf courses can be built anyway. Unexploited land cannot exist, and those jobs were in the way of that.
Forests aren't exactly "unexploited".
Are they giving the ultra rich a new playground, or place to put a factory, helicopter pad, etc? If no, they aren't exploited enough.

Curious how they'll try to hide the oil derricks on the courses considering how much public space they want to sell so they can start drilling. Or maybe they'll just be gilded with sponsor logos on the side.
Nearly every job they cut was like that. The government only doesn't make money if you're an idiot businessman looking in - it generates HUGE returns for the population over time. Or, it did.
It always could've been better.
Why benefit lot people later when few rich guy get richer now?
