I understand the idea. I understand the money. I do not understand why you would want to attract people that have no business being in the Country, to the country. We had a place here that was like that. Just outside of Raleigh/Durham there was once a small farm town called Cary. This town was lost to the Yankee "carpet-baggers" about 10-15 years ago by "big city people" from NY,NJ,MA,OH,DC ect.. I think that it started like a virus. One came and then they all came looking for the easy "southern" life. When they found out that we didn't have a life like they dreamed of, they changed it to what it was like up North. Now natives from NC call it C ontainment A rea for Re-located Y ankees or CARY. I don't mean to sound like a simple minded redneck, but I really hate to see rural life and beautiful farm land/farm towns turning into Starbucks and Mini-malls. It's just sad. What happened to the simple life of the small town? So, I guess what I'm saying is.. No... I wouldn't do it for the fear of them not going home after they played farmer. Just my two cents..
