free land!
small towns in the heartland suffering from "brain drain" are now offering incentives to move there, including free land, thousands of dollars toward owning a home, and free country club memberships. I'm happy to put the blame squarely on these sucky small towns, whose inhabitants vote for the right-wing representatives in our government responsible for draining economic resources from small-town america. but hey, at least the gays can't get their abortions.

Wait, where is this? It reminds me of the way our country was settled during pioneer days. If I remember my Laura Ingalls Wilder correctly, you would be given five acres of land to homestead on the condition that you stuck it out for three years. Apparently it was so mindshatteringly boring that many people were unable to stomach it.
Sounds about right.
