Forest Service May Move From AG to Interior

Personally, I like the idea of moving the National Forests, but there may be issues with cultures.

The Forest Service is has very much the culture of the AG department, profits through harvest, with the National Forests having as their de facto primary purpose providing wood for the timber industry, and the Interior Department is about preservation of special places as an independent good.

To the degree that the Forest Service ends up more like the Park Service, that will be a good thing.
