  • Government Agency Raises Water Costs 109%

    The farmers of the Central Valley have been destroyed by the Federal government, delta smelt and salmon--hundreds of farms have gone under. The rest of us will now pay higher prices for food.

    On top of this an LA County water district, serving the poorest of communities in the county, has raised the cost of water by 109%

    "The fee hikes will be phased in, from $44 per acre-foot of water to $62 per acre-foot on July 1, then to $72 per acre-foot on Jan. 1, 2010, and $92 on July 1, 2010.

    An average household in Lakewood, for example, can expect to pay about $88 more a year on water services, officials said."

    Government is making the poor even poorer. Shame on us for allowing this. Higher taxes, fewer jobs, more costly food, higher energy costs, all due to government.

    We are in deep trouble at every turn. Unemployment has hit 11.6%--it will be at least 12.5% by end of the year.

    Time for a voter revolt.
