This article is based on a story at Politico. I strongly suggest that you follow the link to read the entire story–it is hilarious, and I can’t do it justice here. However, here are the basics. During his tour of the midwest, President Obama was asked by a farmer about coming regulations that might make it more difficult for him to run his farm. The President suggested that the farmer contact the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), as there are often rumors about coming regulations that are not true. A reporter at Politico decided to take the President’s advice and call the USDA. When the reporter called the USDA, he was told that the matter he was inquiring about fell under the jurisdiction of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), not the USDA. So the reporter called the EPA. The article is the story of what happened next. Please follow the link and read the entire article.
The bottom line of this story is simple–if you want answers, don’t call the government!
