“So, what would happen if the chicken industry left? You’ve been down to Salisbury University. You know where the Perdue School of Business is? That was funded by Perdue money. That wouldn’t be there if Perdue wasn’t around. You can go around these buildings downtown, they are there because of the poultry industry. It just infuses the Eastern Shore. Let’s just say in Annapolis, every government agency and person working with a government agency, pulled out and left. They’d be better off than the Eastern Shore losing poultry. That’s really how significant that is.”
