Heh. A good Conservative, PJabber, would have dealt with those poor people differently. He'd have sold them the grass, if they'd cut it themselves, rent the equipment from him, loaned them the money to do it at exorbitant rates, then packaged their debt as AAA bonds, sold it to investors, servicing the debt for a fee, of course... hedged the bonds for several times their face value, made out as a bandit when the bonds failed to pay off...
Perfectly legal, of course, in the Free Market! Deregulated! No red tape! world of modern finance...
Conservatives, particularly those dishing out the pablum, are often quite advanced in their thinking when it comes to ripping people off, not so much when it comes to social issues. Having a F@ggot (standard conservative terminology) on the ballot would be the kiss of death in Red State America, and we all know it.
