Hmmmm... I thought America was a free enterprise country, not Soviet
Russia. Why can't you burros go let consultants do this work? <G>
Gee, how come I can't get a gubmint barber to cut my hair for free? Or
get a gubmint plumber to fix my toilet? But if I'm a rich guy with
forest land I can get a gubmint guy to write me a mgt. plan? Oh, that's
right, America represents socialism for the rich; now that most of the
wealth of the country has trickled up for the past quarter century.
Slash welfare for the single woman with 12 kids living in a slum. Take
away her food stamps.. then use the money to have a gubmint guy prepare
mgt. plans.
