NO ID Episode 14 - Hummer Limo
Executive Producers:
Kevin Killian
North Idaho's growing midwife industry raises uncomfortable questions about public trust in the medical establishment, while Washington discovers that taxing precious metals is an excellent way to stimulate Idaho's economy. Governor Brad Little and Superintendent Debbie Critchfield explain why even microscopic budget cuts are apparently unconstitutional, Coeur d'Alene's nightlife falls victim to liquor licensing, and Idaho considers the radical proposition of eliminating registration stickers. Plus, the glorious tyranny of 2020, Boise contemplates abolishing a department without surrendering a dime, and a North Idaho neighborhood attempts to privatize its road. The taxpayers are exhausted, the bureaucrats are indignant, and the official response remains:WE NEED THIS MONEY.
