Government Grows Even in Idaho

Posted By admin

…Idaho’s government is growing whether or not government buildings grow with it. In a conservative state that has long viewed government with suspicion, that still means conflict. But even the governor's fellow Republicans concede that the momentum here shifted years ago from bait-and-bullet to New West boutique. As with so many other decreasingly rugged places in the inland West, there is more of everybody in Idaho now: techies, Democrats, immigrants, environmentalists. (New York Times [1], Friday)

Can't somebody stop it?
