Editor:

We farm in northern Minnesota and receive your magazine. I was reading your article, "Grassroots input sought from all Minnesotans" (The Farmer, January, page 10). Wow, you seem to think Gov. (Tim) Walz is out there for Minnesota? I think NOT.

I think he campaigned on a fake agenda. He is going to raise taxes all he can. This isn't what we want and being a farm magazine, you'd think you could see that.

I read some of his comments on what his plans for the future are. He is going to create three government offices around the state to fight or "dissolve" Islamphobia? One is going to be in Bemidji, one in Duluth and the other in the Twin Cities. I wonder why he isn't setting up three offices to dissolve "Christianphobia."

Really, using our TAXES to fix something with religion. This is where the division of church and state comes in. I am not using my taxes to make people think Islam is peaceful! Then he was telling about how he and his wife will attend the Mosque every Friday. So now we have a Muslim for a governor! Wow, just what Minnesota needs. As if we haven't brought in thousands of "illegal alien refugees" here in Minnesota.

Illegal immigrants cost American taxpayers about $116 billion per year in government benefits, even after factoring in the taxes they pay. Each illegal alien residing in the U.S. imposes an annual fiscal burden of around $8,075. Think about this for your next article. Report what is really going on in Minnesota and the USA.
