Yeah right "we"(or maybee children grandchildren????) are gona pay the bill, some way or another.
Maybe time to adress isues in a practical matter, as recognizing the problems as real? in stead off arguing/discusing wether it's a political problem???????
To me or the future it's not important hoom let the horse out, or hoom is to blame,just flat out recognicing that it's out (the horse).
Agreeing on getting it in and keep it there should be #1 mutual intrest.
It seems to me that politicans left and right keep ordinary people bizze arguing about the political aproach to something that seems eassy, for plain ordinary left/right wing people with a litle common scense to sort out???????
So hoom is fooling hoom I ask?
Mods if this is to political please delete
Andy,
The asian carp thing was pretty much out of the hands of the common people as soon as it became a problem. Many of us tried to get something done "addressed the issue" complete with lawsuits and contacting our political representatives. Trust me everything was tried short of a violent protest. The courts decided what was best for us as they always do (we're stupid we don't know anything), which was closing the canal for the good of the Great Lakes was not an option. End of story. Closing the canal was the only option that would have closed the "barn door."
No blaming here. Just stating it like it is.
