Your president doesn't give a $#!+. Niether does Zinke nor Pruitt. Nor do your reps. Their obsequious acceptance of the federal leadership is nothing more than cashing in. What they open for abuse gets paid for. But the payment ain't going into state or national coffers. It's going to the deepest pockets. It ain't conservative, it ain't "Christian," and it sure as hell ain't American.
Water ways are the first impediment to construction. They'll keep interrupting waterways and filling wetlands. Your aquifers are empty. Sink holes, baby. Now you have businesses charging a kings ransom to fill'em with concrete. Good engineering science might develop a system to reclaim and divert water back to the limestone cracks. I'm sure Zinke's already investing in those concrete "reclamations," or giving his neighbors contracts.
It is Ameri-con. It's called Kleptocracy. If you ain't against you will pay dearly down the road via your children, if you are so fortunate to have some. As for their children? God help them, that generation may be sterile if you let the current administration continue the wholesale rape of your resources. Good luck, Sandman. You've got a lot of persuading to do. As some observer once noted:
“It’s easier to fool people than to convince them they have been fooled.” We're on part 2 now.

Thanks Gillie.
Our governor Scott has friends who purchased land North of the Lake.
I guess 300 million in Medicare fraud was not enough cabbage.
The narrative last year was the new homes and their septic systems.
Classic Fanjul deflection as we subsidize their sugar production.
I know CSC is not a political platform and I am fine with that.
My intent is to learn as much as I can and start a new thread on
wait for it.... thespurioustruth.
Thanks gang and Happy New Year.
As a side note I called Black Doggy Dog after Cane Harvey and asked about the
fishing.
Bill said get out there any way you can. Said he was averaging 2-3 keeper Red Groupah
per trip. The massive fresh water run off had caused the fish to move here. He has friends
in NMFS who confirmed his thoughts.
I said I had not caught a legal Red in 20 years.
Bill said he had not caught one in 20 years on his charters!
This is what he does every day!!!
He is strictly a bottom fisherman.
When I first met him, I had to laugh.
Most charter guys have vanity plates on their trucks.
Bill`s plate was a Mutton Schnappah.
Our estuaries have collapsed.
Sea grass is nonexistent.
Without grass, we have nothing.
Phytoplankton eat the detritus from grasses.
Zooplankton eat Phytoplankton.
Fry eat Zooplankton.
The first time I dove Salvation site in the Keys during Mini Season, I just smiled.
I was watching Mahi fry the size of my pinky. The corals were numerous and healthy.
Brain coral, Stag horn, massive fans and sponges.
Please help me build our case.
I have heard Donald Jr. is a fisherman.
Any truth to this?
