At times, I shake my head in awe that anything gets done in this country. It's bad enough that we have so many flea-ridden, drug-addled, Occupy Wall Street-types who, apparently jobless, find the time to protest the movement of megaloads over U.S. Highway 12 on their way to the Alberta, Canada, tar sands. That the court system inserts itself into the fray by creating obstructions only makes it more remarkable that our economy still has a pulse, though it barely does. For reasons that defy logic, U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill awarded the United States Forest Service veto power over so-called megaloads traveling east on U.S 12. According to the judge, the fact that the highways passes through a national forest gives the Forest Service this authority.I say that this defies logic because, even though my property line extends into the middle of the street in front of my house, I have no control over who drives on it. If all my neighbors, who collectively own the entire street, joined together, we still couldn't prevent anyone from using that street/Michael Costello, Lewiston Tribune. More here.

Question: Do you agree/disagree with judge's decision giving USFS veto power over megaloads?
