He says Wholestone is "owned by local farm families". About 200 of them. These "family farms" have a 500 MILLION DOLLAR BUDGET for this one facility. (And they attack Broin for having money?) Gosh, I don't remember our little family farm having the ability to spend 2 1/2 million dollars on something like a slaughterhouse.

These 200 well-to-do pork producers are forcing their project on 200,000 citizens. They say they will build the slaughterhouse even if they lose the vote.

Perhaps they should "remember who made them a success". Consumers - like the residents of Sioux Falls.

So bringing this to a vote by the citizens of Sioux Falls is wrong and misguided? Get a clue. How about all farmers that would use this facility forfeit their farm subsidies into an account for future odor mitigitation.
