If we do not have a source of <br /> outside income to pay for the goods we import such as cars, <br /> building materials, clothing and other goods, we will go <br /> bankrupt as a county. <br /> An irradiation facility will allow us to export products <br /> nationally and internationally. It will provide a source of <br /> "foreign exchange" that is essential to our economy. <br /> If our County and State do not start encouraging and actively <br /> supporting projects that will give a jump start to our <br /> economy and allow small. businesses to stay in business, we <br /> will soon be a State of only government workers and welfare <br /> recipients. Is anyone lister.ina_? It is business that pays <br /> for government workers and welfare recipients. <br /> I ask your support cf the irradiation facility and its <br /> potential benefits to the people and economy of the Big <br /> Island. <br /> Mahalo. ~ 7 <br /> r <br /> Sharon K.
