That's why I propose a Transcontinental Water Transportation Highway ... Similar to the design and structure size and project size as the Panama Canal ! We start with pipes laid in the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico that traverse the sea floor along the coast line from Texas to the mouth of the Mississippi River. We fashion a collection intake that will handle fresh water flows before they reach the gulf, similar to the twin tunnels Brown is proposing for the delta bypass. We then connect the pipes to an open v ditch that will carry 15mm csf water flows; build the above ground system or continue with pipes from Texas to California. We can sell water to mexico in trade for building the infrastructure from Texas to California along the Mexican Boarder (including other incentives) i.e. border control; gang/cartel eradication etc... We can then farm and feed the twin cities L.A. Metro, and S.D.M.D. plus make up any losses from the Colorado. Water transfer's would facilitate the water deliveries to the Central Valley and all parts between.

7 年The water way will also effectively become a "water storage" creating a "two birds with one stone scenario. Labor can come from Mexico as they will gladly trade labor for water !..... respectively Mexico Pays for the wall of water !

7 年The 1965 revamp of the entire immigration system. It ended 40 years of low immigration, got rid of solid numerical caps and opened up chain migration into every overpopulated country in the world, exploding annual immigration numbers. Massive expansion of the refugee programs in the late 1970s, opening up massive loopholes and encouraging a domestic resettlement industry that became a major lobby for more and more overall immigration. The 1986 blanket amnesty. Kennedy's skills may have been best seen here where he got legislators on our side to agree to the amnesty in exchange for enforcement rules that he made sure were written in a way that would not work. Within a decade, he would be using the inability to enforce the 1986 rules as an excuse for why we needed more green cards and more amnesties. An example of Kennedy's great skill was that he persuaded Ronald Reagan to enthusiastically support this bill. The 1990 immigration act, which increased overall immigration by another 35%. The first Pres. Bush was Kennedy's co-partner, just as the second Pres. Bush was Kennedy's eager co-partner in trying to force through another blanket amnesty 2001-2008. The 1990 act also established the lottery whereby we randomly give away 50,000 green cards a year to people in countries picked because they have the least ties and cultural association with the United States, and which disproportionately are terrorist-sponsoring countries. This was something of a compromise for Kennedy who was able to ensure that during the first few years, much of the lottery winners would be illegal aliens from Ireland -- his own ethnic group. The H-1B visas which have enabled corporations to keep hundreds of thousands of American kids from getting a foothold in the high tech industry. The total defeat of liberal civil rights champion Barbara Jordan's blue-ribbon commission recommendations to reduce overall immigration and eliminate chain migration and the lottery in 1996. Six mini-amnesties that passed in the 1990s, primarily aimed at specific nationalities.
