Political Factoid
The State of Iowa* used
eminent domain to take
thousands of acres of
privately-owned farmland
from Iowa families
- and gave it to a private,
out-of-state, for-profit
corporation
that will temporarily
(for less than a year) hire
a couple of thousand
workers (many from
out-of-state),
- along with extraordinary
(can you spell EXPENSIVE)
state police protection, all
paid for by Iowa taxpayers.

More precisely, it was not the
taxpayers of Iowa, but the
GOP politicians controlling
the Iowa legislature and
Governor's office.
