Powell on the National Guard

Hold it just a minute, please. You lost me there. I know you'll straighten me
out if I have it wrong, but I thought that the way it worked was that the
government established a production level for corn...

It's way more complicated than that, and not really worth the energy to type my
reply. Here's a funnier scam:

"Dealing with California's water shortage can be solved by growing more orange
trees in the desert and then distilling the water out of the orange juice."

First we need a tax incentive to the farmers, and then the middlemen, and then
we will be water independent. We won't even need snow anymore...

OK! OK! The horse is obviously dead, so we can stop kicking it. Thanks for
your water shortage cure.....imaginative as well as amusing. (*-*)))

Unfortunately, you'll have to subsidize snowmaking for the ski resorts
in that case.
