Glenn's Uncle,

Of The Pioneers, Sang About It
California to turn into "Barren Waste"

"Cool
Water" -
Sons of the Pioneers
"All day I face the barren waste
Without the taste of water, cool water.
Old Dan and I with throats burned dry
And souls that cry for water, cool, clear, water."

California
Dries Up
"State Sen. Jim Costa (D-Fresno), the retiring
water guru in the Legislature, drew gasps from the water delegates
at Anaheim when he said that more farm-to-city water transfers
might reduce agriculture production by a million acres or more."

Los
Angeles Sinks Down
"An estimated 811,000 residents work off
the books as day laborers or nannies, earning substandard wages
and no benefits. Almost 2 million people -- more than in any
other metropolitan area -- eke out an existence on less than
$18,100 a year, the federally defined poverty level for a family
of four." |

Re: A Tragedy of Two Cities
Had the Los Angeles Times told the
truth about illegal immigration and not subverted every attempt
to stop it, Los Angeles would be a great city, not one perched
on the brink of collapse. You have a Tragedy of Two Cities because
you have a Tragedy of One Newspaper. -- Glenn Spencer |
