Visionaries:
I have always been struck by the close association between conservative 
politicians and voters and their need to gut welfare support.  This fiscal belt 
tightening of course does not extend to their personal pocketbooks.  A case in 
point would be the tremendous crop subsidies provided to large farms and 
conservative farmers in Latah County.  Perhaps some of you would be interested in 
learning about the crop payments (made by your tax dollars) to, say members of 
the Hill family, who are, I am told close relatives of our local tax watch dog, 
Greg Vance.

Once you lose integrity everything else is easy.
