They're bs-ing - almost all of them would be found to take various farm subsidy and crop adjustment checks. They're from Will Co IL.

And that extends to that "to the death" and "toe the line" stuff too.

When they can't make their tax bills or their mortgage payments you can bet they'll be howling. The trick here is to make sure you reach them - they can "tow" their line over somewhere else, and will. These don't give off the signals you'd expect from religious fanatics, nazis, or other kinds of dead enders - just people who haven't done enough thinking yet.
