      Corruption and discrimination is when a woman with a graduate degree in public policy from the U. of Minnesota is passed over for a failed politician who dropped out of college, shills for sulfide mining companies and failed to pay his traffic tickets.http://www.timberjay.com/stories/irrr-hiring-decision-comes-under-fire,15002 …

      PolyMet's pal @joeradinovich (one of three Democrats nationwide who lost a blue House seat to the GOP) just landed a plum $100K state job that was advertised for all of 24 hours. The sulfide boys can't wait to open that mine. Clean water? Forget it.

          24hrs? Damn, how good must that CV have been? Or, y'know, something other-wise...

          I am sure a good word from PolyMet can help.

          We have become the kind of country we used to sneer at.

          Nothing surprising here...the I triple R is where those who lose find a home. Been going on for decades. Then they're paid to do non-American mining companies bidding; all in the name of "jobs" -- that never seem to come and or are fleeting at best.

          So IRRR is a place for loser politicians to go and collect a taxpayer funded paycheck while they help sulfide mining destroy our Boundary Waters and Lake Superior. And that’s what the DFL stands for? Pathetic

          It's a Northern thing, Richard. Politicians up here work for their constituents, who need jobs to support families. We have some tech and tourism, but that doesn't compare to the wages that mining offers. MN has very tough regulations, let the process work.
