Editor,
Just to stay current with geo-political issues, here’s a link to an article from a local friend. While I recognize that most of us are asleep at the wheel and have our “Do Not Disturb” signs hung from our rear view mirrors, it would behoove us to go to the link http://farmwars.info/?p=12646 and read the article, for our enlightenment. Think of it as recreation.
When the government takes over complete control of our water, without a whimper from ya’ll, and starts selling it to someone else (because that’s the humane thing to do) and we’re buying lead-based tomatoes from China, full of e-coli, you’ll wish you had maybe objected when it was possible to object.
But then, “what difference does it make?”
Guess you’ll know, when you turn the kitchen tap and dust comes out. You don’t know poverty until you know it without water, the sustenance of life on earth.
Dams were built to control seasonal flooding, to control and divert water for irrigation to provide for our food sources and to create electrical power — clean, sustainable power. How is removing dams now the right thing to do? How is life without water a good thing?
I’m waiting for an answer but I’m not holding my breath. I’ve read the answers written by some of our legislative representatives and I’m not brain dead enough yet to buy into their mindless rhetoric. I’m not sure why lying is an improvement over bullying, but I guess they’ll try anything at this point.
