Californians Dump 800,000 Acre-feet of Water for 305 Minnows, Claims Drought

Is it possible to starve to death because of a 3 inch bait fish? Well, maybe not, but environmentalists are making sure that thousands of families do not have jobs, and that the rest of the nation pays higher food prices in order to “protect” a small, non-endangered fish that they think is important enough to put countless farmers and farm families out of business.

The Delta smelt is a minnow that resides in the Delta marsh region near Sacramento, California. Much of California is a desert, and water management is critical. Central California is a major farming district that supplies a huge portion of fresh fruits and vegetables to the rest of the country, but Central and Southern California depend on water that is directed from the much wetter and water abundant areas of Northern California. Crazy environmentalists who hold the environment as their religion, have decreed that they will stop most or all of the water flowing south, all in the name of protecting the Delta smelt. And the out-of-control judges agree and have placed the well-being of the insignificant fish above the needs of humans and farming families. It is outrageous and unbelievable, but that is the fact.
