Stop corn subsidies!

Dave Barry Hits Below the Beltway, and I am not making this up, this is by Dave Barry

I want to point out that, if you go to dollarbook.blogspot.com, you can find oodles of great, fantastic, unclaimed books. If you give me a dollar, I'll give you the book and I'll give the dollar to World Vision. If you want to give more than a dollar, that's awesome, I'll give whatever you give me to World Vision.

If you have a slew of books you want to get rid of, give them to me, and I'll distribute them through Dollar Book.

If you like the Dollar Book idea, but aren't in Baltimore, let me know, and we'll see what we can do to make a Dollar Book thing happen in your area.
