A small town near out together an incentive package for a wind farm that was shopping itself around the country.

They imminent-domained hundreds of tiny plots of land from local farmers so a billion-dollar wind installation could go up without paying the farmers, and in return the city received $200,000 it used to paint a school, and the peoject it created a whopping 2 full-time jobs after construction was completed.

And the mayor acted like it was a victory.
