Who controls the water, controls the food supply
Continuing on the food kick - Premise: Government is all about the politics - and we want our food supply politicized? It is:
As for the rest of us, the implications are huge, not just for our food bills, but for establishing the precedent of allowing the Federal government this level of control over water. When government takes your water, they take the value of your land nay, they steal the value of your land.
Missouri lost this battle over the last several years and unlike California, we have to drive hundreds of miles to find anything that looks like a desert. Nevertheless, the Government used the same Act to withhold water from the State after which the river is named, favoring the pallid sturgeon over farmers. Get the pattern?
Now consider for a moment that we are not just talking about California farmers, nor just our food supply, we are talking about who controls the food supply.......This area of California is some of the most productive in the Country producing nearly half of America’s produce including 55% or our asparagus, 90% of our strawberries and 100% of our olives. When the 35,000 unemployed residents of the region look for help at the food pantries they drive past idle asparagus fields to get their canned asparagus from China. So we depend on Islamists for oil and now China not just for cash but for food!
Freedom of choice? Or Government making choices for you? This is not about food, nor about water. It is about power. Go read it.
After all, we've seen this play out before back in the 1940s, haven't we, with the death of millions, and again later on again, by those that control the Government
