[glenn57]

so i'm stealing this from IDO.......

any of you southern Mn types.......you to Gunner,  hear anything about Iowa  wanting to buy ALL of the counties on the Iowa border???

sounds like the biggest holdup in negotiations.........is Iowa has  to take Timmy too!!!!!!

[Steve-o]

Good!  Maybe I94 will get maintained when it needs it.   

'Make Minnesota Iowa Again': Senator proposes bill to let Iowa buy 9 Minnesota counties

This stuff makes good headlines, but MN would never give up the House of Representative votes in Congress.

I hope this doesnt cause anyone to hate me,, Years ago when I was a kid, ( I have a great memory, I remember going on a picnic with dad and coming home with mom )
anyway, the old joke was MN residents hated Iowa so they would gather up on the weekends and throw dynamite at us, we would light it and throw it back.
 Now we would be a tier of counties closer the capital!!.

 How in the hello does anyone think this crap up?? Really? I have heard of some dumb stuff in Iowa but this takes the cake, they want it for more farmland, more hog confinements, WTF! lets wreck the country some more in the name of profit!! and stink it up good while we are at it, cheesenrice, lets pollute more, lets make more water unfit to drink, more chemicals on and on.
  I hope MN tells that jack wagon to go pound sand, You good folks have lost enough land to big ag, and losing more everyday, very sad in my book.

OH, and keep tampon tim, we have enough stupid here already.

the guy was tootin his horn if those counties joined iowa business taxes would be less as well as income and other taxes.  and yes farming

he did however fail to mention it would be/could be going to corporate farming!!!!!

not to mention the casinos !!!

We already have plenty of hog confinement buildings in place in the southern 2 tiers of counties in MN. And turkeys. If you believe MN is somehow small farmer friendly you are sadly mistaken.

True that Mike.

Forever and always, first rule when somebody proposes something like this or anything else that seems too good to be true:

FOLLOW THE MONEY!!!!!

Dotch, you are correct, I drive by those farms identical to the many we have here when we head up to Bemidji, sad, very sad, I go up there to escape here, it also rips my soul out seeing how many trees are being removed yearly for ag production north of St Cloud all the way to Bemidji.

How could you have missed me Glenn?? I mean, someone driving a 09 Silverado pulling a 96 Starcraft isnt clue enough in itself??
It will be extremely obvious when you see that same Silverado pulling the same Starcraft cept it will be painted up fancy with all new carpet, vinyl and a new Suzuki hanging on the transom this year.
Cant wait to show off Scenic and I's work!!

I'm sure all this nonsense between states, stems from all the Nonsense the MSM is playing up about Trump joking around about buying Greenland, Canada, renaming the Golf of Mexico, buying Tiktok and take back the Panama canal.  It's all just a bunch of jabber!
