From Deseret News archives:
The winners and the losers
All of this has a serious side. Fish farms could save a lot of money by releasing their fish into the ocean, then having them return, well-fed and developed, at the sound of a bell. Of course, we assume they would follow anyone willing to strike the right note.
• Loser: Just when you thought you had heard it all, someone posted a classified ad on KUTV.com recently in hopes of selling a baby girl. The asking price was $6,560, and the child was listed as "used." The ad was removed after police got involved, but they still are looking for the person behind it. Perhaps it was a joke. That still would be disturbing, but it also would be a relief.
• Winner: A recent audit discovered that the city of La Verkin, in Washington County, has a $200,000 deficit. Because of that, the mayor and the City Council have decided to go unpaid until the books once again are balanced.
That's a noble gesture one we wish the folks in Washington would adopt.
