On Friday, the California State Assembly outdid itself.
You can always count on the leftist leaders of what is supposed to be the “people’s house” never lets a crisis go to waste.
With the passage of AB 1739 (Dickinson-D), SB 1168 (Pavley-D), and SB 1319 (Pavley-D), 100 years of history was reversed.
The authors painted a grim picture of California’s groundwater future.
Most of what they said is true.
The only problem they didn’t bother to tell you two key truths:
1.It was these same so-called leaders who give up our seat—the property owner and the farmer’s place at the table—to the enviro-extremists. The fish now have more water rights than do the farmers and ranchers who by making a living off the land, feed this state and this country.
2.By wasting surface water and letting 800,000 acre-feet go out to sea instead of capturing and storing it for the bad years, California’s dysfunctional policies combined with uber-restrictive Federal endangered species protections have created over-dependency on groundwater.
.....This is about power and government control.
Whoever controls the water, controls the people.
Every time the government takes more control over a natural resource, the price goes up.
In this case, the cost of food and energy will be inflated by government, not the marketplace.
When government is the source of inflation, it is only a matter of time until cheaper sources make their way to market from less-regulated states or nations.
