		They think what of us?! Concerned by polling data that shows the two phrases that come most readily to mind when people hear the word “Idaho” are “tater tots” and “White supremacy”, the Idaho chamber of commerce has decided to subsidize the production of films filmed (and set) in their state. Any genre of film (except Sci-Fi and Fantasy) is acceptable as long as it is primarily set in Idaho and portrays the state in a realistic and positive light – i.e., nothing that would scare people off of visiting. Compensation is free genre costs and 20 million towards he ad budget (which fills up the ad budget). NOTE: Film must feature at least one scene glamorizing potato consumption, and may not reference white supremacy.
