“Many of them are in families that have two careers, and their spouse can’t move. They have kids in high school. They have ailing parents they are taking care of,” said Kit Muller, who retired last year after 38 years with the bureau and is one of those projecting that fewer than half of reassigned staffers would move. “You can imagine the reasons.” [WHINE.

As someone who grew up out west... I retain serious disdain for DC bureaucrats who set the rules for people living far away who they have never met. Same goes for progressive environmentalist from the upper west side of Manhattan who are living on an island stolen from Native Americans beside a river that once have enough sturgeon to export caviar to Russia. Who are they to say how the land should be managed?
