Default Starting a Salt Company using Utah salt flat

Im a young talented young entrapanuer from NYC and when i think of Utah i think "big business"

i got the finaces and team to set up a company in your famous salt flat

i plan on chipping away at the salt,grindin it up and then selling it as Utah salt just like Idahoe pototos

i will have tents and stuff set up and i will hire the local panhandler all the way up to a suit and tie guy if you are willing to be an endentured servant

anyone agree this is one heck of a plan? wish me luck

"Utah salt." The next big thing. Just like Idaho is known for it's taters, we'll be known for our salt. Amazing.

Hehe, good luck squaring off with the environmentalists! The flats have been losing salt lately, so there is a big, expensive project underway to pump more salt into the flats, not take it out. Car racers, who find the flats just perfect for their own purposes, might also have something to say.
