Dams, like much of our infrastructure, are not the sort of things that attract any attention. As long as they do their jobs, nobody notices and life goes on as normal. Even those who enjoy the benefits of these structures such as boating enthusiasts and those who use the electricity often generated at dams, rarely give them a thought. That is, until something goes wrong, and with a dam that could mean catastrophe.
Man-made structures need periodic maintenance. When that is not performed, they deteriorate. All of this is obvious, but it is often deliberately ignored for budgetary reasons. Fail to maintain a road. and you get potholes. Fail to maintain a dam, and you can end up with thousands of dead people and untold property damage. It looks like California may be headed for just such a catastrophe. More on page two.
Go ask the “snowflakes” they have a lot of money!
All you’ve got to do Jerry is raise taxes.
Ask the mouthy celebrities for money!!!
Huge money – protecting illegals. That is why Brown has no money – to fix the damn dam.
Governor Brown used the hundred and ninety million dollars that you are going to pay Eric Holder take that money and use it for your dad instead of fighting the president put your illegal immigrants to work on the dam
This guy is a bafoon. All Jerry Brown has done is ruin the State of California. Don’t give him squat.
Maybe instead of spending billions on illegal aliens you could have spared a few million to fix the dam. I mean California has known about it since 2005.Gather the Hollywood Star’s & all of the other protestor’s to join hands to hold back the water
..and how is it that.. your poor planning constitutes an emergency on my end again?
Spend money on illegal immagrants, on a high speed train, stupid unconsutional gun laws, treatment for addicts that doesn’t work, giving illegals drivers licenses!! All along knowing that a failure at this damn was a strong possibility. Good job Mr. Moron Moonbeam.
just drown mr. brown, get all the rich liberal stars that were against trump to put their fingers in the wall
