Categories: Insurance, Retirement

Protection for people with paranoia of Orwellian proportions.

Farmer Jones runs one of the most successful pig breeding operations in Wisconsin. He has become worried that other farmers are planting spies on his farm, bugging the pig sty with listening devices (hidden among the spider webs), and plotting to steal his piglets.
