Why do we always think someone from somewhere else, some magic someone with money and jobs has the solution for our economic problems?
Perhaps if we can just concoct the right inducements and incentives, even though we’re in a 50,000-year drought cycle, and even though we’re one of the poorest and least educated states in the union, if only we can throw the right tax incentives and benizens at such folk, they will just roll over and begin to smile on us, dispense their largesse, and New Mexico will be a blessed and golden land.
Witness the latest proposed and potentially extremely visionary state economic development effort. Conservatives and liberals alike love this new deal.
The wild pigs from Texas are now eating their way north through New Mexico. They have, through their spokeshog, offered our fair state Jobs! Jobs! Jobs!
In exchange, the wild pigs humbly ask to rip up every tree root in the state, destroy all crops and living green matter, enroil and besmirch all New Mexico waterways.
Both the legislature and the gov. are just about trembling over this latest initiative to offer GRT abatement for a thousand years to the wild hogs from Texas, monthly incentive pig payments to be assessed against each and every living state citizen at the rate of .0107563 multiplied by the base indicator preference to be determined quarterly by TRD. (Yearly assessments against the dead at the usual discount window rate.)
