The biggest news story today comes from the Hendersonville Lightning. From it we learn that the greatest thing about democracy is being protected from your vote by your masters.

Remember Project X? Well, Henderson County has two projects with worse aliases. The public is being held in the dark, but if they have anything to say, they’d better show up at the public hearing to make their opinions heard before they are allowed to find out anything about the deals.

Remember, the corporate welfare afforded to Project Dufus and Project Dorky could well be the competitive advantage that puts you out of a job. SWEET! So, tell your commissioners to give the projects lots of incentives with magic multipliers.

Won’t you?
