Wisconsin State assembly looking to pass wolf hunting bill

MADISON — The state Assembly is expected to sign off on a bill this week that would create a wolf hunt in Wisconsin.

Ayn Rand said no piece of nature has value unless it can be exploited for profit...well she WOULD have said it given half a chance!

INTELLECT in it: specifically, every landscape should have a billboard
