Actually, no, but you're being intellectually dishonest in that the people on Denton aren't doing this because they are envious of those that own the land that fracking is occurring on, but because their town is being subjected to hundreds of earthquakes that are causing harm to those that aren't receiving any material benefit from said fracking. But thanks for playing.
I didn't say anything about envy nor did I imply envy. I said that the people without mineral rights are impairing the economic potential of the people who do have mineral rights. Denton is a perfect example because a fair chunk of the population (and anti-fracking signatures, I'm sure) is students who only live in Denton temporarily on a part-year basis. They definitely don't have mineral rights.
UNT is a commuter school. Most of those people do live in Denton or nearby.
