The same people that have sent billions of tax dollars to others by obscure means have been at work within our borders. There has long been a gradual, seemingly innocuous, movement by Federal/State agencies to tacitly enable native tribes to control water sources. Witness the dam removal movement that places an incomprehensible burden on society at large. Examine the long term nature or result of any legislation regarding water and it is likely you will find within it something promoting a transfer of control. Water and its control are the Achilles Heel of our way of life. It’s all about control because control IS money. The public is quietly losing control through complacency and apathy. Allowed to happen it will never be corrected. Washington State is further along in the process and those who are doubtful should look there for a look at the future.
