There is absoluteh~ nothing to be gained from this project that. <br /> would serve the good of the general public of our very special island. '.3s a DOE <br /> teacher, I feel it is an outright waste o2 my hard earned cax dollars. <br /> Let's support local farmers in other ways, by giving tax breaks to taro <br /> farmers and other diversified agricultural entrepreneurs, who are growing food for <br /> us here in Hawaii, -the majority of which is still imported from abroad. Rather <br /> than sending in•adiated merchandise to the mainland (which I personalh~ would <br /> nee-er eat:} let's produce our own food first, which would assure better quality and <br /> lower costs for Hawai'i's consumer. <br /> Nle ka ha' aha' a <br /> Ku Kahakalau & 'ohana <br /> <br />
