Time To Write Our Congressfolk Maru
If you want your efforts to actually have a chance to accomplish anything,
though, that needs to read:
"Time To Write Our Congressfolk » A Check « Maru"
and make sure it's for a substantially bigger amount than the check that
Wal-Mart writes to your local officials to get them to give them your
property . . .
Money Makes The World Go 'Round Maru
