Assisting the Good Life

Great bit on the government subsidies flowing to corporate (and wealthy individual) interests. I know that here in Indiana the amount of public money flowing to slackers like these dwarfs the amount going to "welfare mothers". Which just makes it doubly insane...

A golf resort in Oregon benefits from a variety of hidden subsidies, the kind of indirect favors that influence the flow of money from public to private interests.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
