Top States Where Top Secret America Isn't--Really

In the map of the United States provided by Priest and Arkin in "Top Secret America",they note all the government agencies and corporations working on the new security state. So if you are thinking about moving to somewhere away from these intrusive entities, there are a few states where their presence is kept to a minimum. In most of these states you have a military presence but none of the more spooky elements--except for places with the right-wing militia movement.

The States are:
1. Maine
2. North Dakota
3. South Dakota
4. Montana
5. Wyoming
6. Idaho
7. Oregon

To a lesser degree;
8. Iowa
9. Wisconsin
