<< The Dakotas are odd places that vote pretty GOP for President but keep
electing pretty liberal Dems for Senate - its an odd populism but then it
has a long tradition of strange political alignments >>
I think I remember reading somewhere that one of the Dakotas had legislatively prohibited the factory hog (or chicken?) farms that are becoming standard in the midwest/south (and coming to washington state, apparently - on a recent drive through eastern wa I saw, on one side of the road, the beginnings of a intensive cattle operation and on the other, a farmhouse, with a "for sale" sign and a handmade protest billboard pointing to the operation: "site of proposed open cesspool"). Anybody know anything about this kind of legislation in the Dakotas? Or anywhere else, for that matter?
