Voter Intimidation

Even at the farmer level.

Yesterday I saw farmers who were afraid to sign an independent petition requesting an increase in milk prices. They belong to a certain large, national, so-called "cooperative", which told them they would lose their market if they signed it. That company controls a ridiculous portion of the market so they had little choice but to comply.

Something is rotten and it ain't in Denmark.

Meanwhile, check out this article. (HT to John Bunting)

    Teri, it made me so mad. People should be free to speak their minds, especially about things like this.

    Linda, it is appalling. How dare they! Do they think no one will notice?

    Jan, I had heard that it was done, but this was the first time I ever saw it in action.
