PUBLIC MIND: ENVIRONMENT GETS YOUR MONEY

To the editor.

It costs an enormous amount of money for environmental radicals to stop mining, shut down logging, run farmers off their land and do all the rest of the goofy, destructive projects on their agenda. There are lawyers and lobbyists to pay, donations to politicians, printing costs and much, much more, costing tens of millions of dollars yearly.

You provide a very large part of that money. It comes to the environmentalists as tax-free gifts from foundations that got their money from companies that sell the everyday goods and services you buy. You are bankrolling the environmental movement.

You can look up addresses and telephone numbers in the library. If you get upset knowing that the environmentalists who are trying to take away your job and run you off your land are being supported by the companies you buy from, call or write and let the head man know what you think.
