The problem with Wisan's plan is that many of the households in hildale are on State welfare. They only have money to pay for what they want to pay for. Good luck.

These people have an opportunity to own their own homes and live a good life. Instead they refuse to cooperate. I wish I only had to pay $100 a month and property tax. These people have refused to follow the laws of the land including child and sexual abuse laws; I hardly think they are going to start obeying the law now. At this point, they can only blame themselves.

Maybe Jeffs should be stopped from running the cult from inside his jail cell.

If the states would consider them domestic partners instead of single parents would that help get them off of welfare? All they are doing is stealing our money. Maybe they aren't as dumb as we think, they get free food and healthcare. They don't have to work, pay taxes what a life. I guess the figure a little illegal sex is a good trade for these things. There was a couple on the news not to long ago in a state where he was 18 and she was 16. He is still listed as a sex offender. When she was out of high school they got married and have children, but he still on that list. If we can arrest someone like this and not them I don't understand the law. There is no other religon (that I can think of) that doesn't obey the laws of the land. The Catholic priests are bing arrested for sex crimes why not them.
