>The great republican depression (GRD)
Being delusional will get us no where.California is and has always been controlled by Democrats.They are the ones creating policy and bankrupting the state.Queen Pelosi and a fool named Dean Florez are leading the parade.Wake up and stop passing the blame.
The point is simple.The world would starve without animal agriculture here today.There are many new technologies coming out increasing yields,pest resistance,drought tolerant,etc.But coming out of the other sides of peoples mouths I hear them crying foul about GMO seeds.
Just a thought here folks.Lets say magically tomorrow every human being turned vegan.Animals were free to frolick.Where in the heck are we going to get enough food to feed everyone?There are great restrictions on which crops can be grown in different locations.
California Air Resources Board is forcing owners of diesel or natural gas motors(pumps,generators,etc. to retrofit the motors with a catalytic type converter ($8K to $10k cost) plus yearly compliance inspections(more $$$)or face enormous fines.

We need to build more storage capacity.But as long as we are more worried about a particular fish or rodent then nothing gets accomplished.

Wow we have a brilliant person amoung us.Who do you think controls California?Who do you think is responsible for our gigantic deficit spending.Its not Republicans fool.You tax and spend foolish democrats are killing us.Businesses left and right have left California for more friendly states taking with them a boat load of tax money and jobs.
Lack of water in California is a gigantic concern.Snow pack is way down.BUT ofcourse we have wacko eniviros taking irrigation water and diverting it for fish and for restoring rivers that have been dry for decades.LA sucks alot of water from the Central Valley.No new damns have been built in over 20 years (wacko enviro's tie everything up in court) yet the states population has exploded. The Kicker in all this as that ALOT of water just ends up flowing into the ocean. All we need to do is build more storage.Hold that water.
