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.

So have a fund raising with all the Hollywood movie stars !!! They seem to have all kinds of money to donate to all you liberals at election time !! So call them !!!

Have any more stupid Liberal programs you want to waste money on Jerry Brown?????!!!! IDIOTS.
There are American lives at stake if this dam breaks. The far left politicians may learn a hard lesson, from the help of American tax payers, and our Republican leaders if we extend our help in their time of need. One can only hope a lesson in unity would calm the left.
