Default RE: baiting deer in Pa

"There is no justification for not cutting timber that should be cut."

Oh yes there is. It's called the law of supply and demand. Limit the supply and you drive the price (in this case timber) up. Now you may say that the PGC does not cut that much timber to affect the price, and I would argue that the PGC is among one of the biggest timber sources in the state. They would have to affect the price of timber, be it ever so small, and I don't think it comes under the small catagory.

That begs the question if my thoughts are remotely correct.....WHO PROFITS? (Think about that for a moment.)

With 38 foresters on the payroll and only some 7000 acres cut last year it doesn't appear to me that those fellas are overworked. And as Mocha Java stated, why not contract out and use the profits to pay for the whole effort?
Or does it just break down to incompetent management of the agency?
