Fed Judge and Iran insure spike in food prices

[kenno]

A federal Judge has shut-off irrigation water to Ca.'s Imperial Valley, the nation's most productive AG area insuring a crop failure in fruit, nuts, veggies, soy, veg. oil, leggumes and RICE. The western US will be forced to import these goods. Much of the world is dependant on CA beans/rice through US Govt. give away programs and will be forced to switch to other grains or starve, driving-up the price of all other grains.
Turmoil in Iran will spike oil prices and transportation costs. ALL food prices are going to surge !

Kenno, when did a judge do this? I can't seem to find anything on it at the moment. This is not good!

I don't have a link, but I saw it on Fox News and they shut off the water to protect a minnow.

You have got to be kidding me! This is absolutely ridiculous. I encourage everyone to express outrage to their reps, send letters, make phone calls, even throw in a few visits. I can't believe they would choose a minnow over 80,000 people. I guess they prefer the masses in the food lines. :mad:

Just one more way to control.

They have been dialing back the water for years in California. When they were having a drought, they didn't restrict how much water the slugs could put in their swimming pools, noooooooo! They cut off how much the farmers could use "upstream". To save a frickin' fish, smaller than a minnow that isn't even NATIVE to the area!

They have done the same thing in the Wilamet valley of Washington over a fish.

Doctor Savage is difficult to listen to on the radio, but his book, "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder" is RIGHT on the money!
