California Water and Infrastructure Report For April 15, 2021

What’s missing in the “infrastructure” debate on all sides is one simple fact: we are living in a doomed financial system, dominated by the policies of the central banks, Wall Street and the City of London. Every policy put forward by JoeBama is in service to a corporatist policy aimed at saving the financial parasite, while keeping the host barely alive.”

A Note To Readers

This week’s report deliberately reflects the content and the themes of much of the media coverage of the ongoing Southwestern States increasingly serious drought. The overwhelming tone of the coverage is near hysteria. More often we are seeing the word megadrought used to describe the situation.

The U.S. Drought Monitor maps and reports do make clear that this is the most serious drought recorded since the Drought Monitor was begun in 2000. And may already be the most serious drought in the past 150 years. As the paleoclimatologists have demonstrated, these last 150 years have been the “wettest” in the past 1000-2000 years. The question is asked, “have we returned to an era of megadroughts and megafloods that characterized those last millennia?

At the same time, the already announced restrictions of the allocation of water from the California projects, Oregon’s Klamath Basin (which also affects California), and the Colorado River, means that this year agricultural output will be substantially impacted. Perhaps as deep as during the 2012-2016 California drought.

Also covered this week is the response of the agricultural community, which is taking the brunt of the water restrictions already.

The next section of this report is a report on the progress, or perhaps non-progress of the authorization process for the proposed large desalination plant at Huntington Beach. That proposal by Poseidon will build a sister plant to the one that opened a few years ago in Carlsbad, which supplies now about 7% of the water to San Diego County.

The final section of this week’s report is the Feature, a statement on the mobilization to defeat the Biden Mussolini-style fascism seen in his so-called “Great Reset.”

We will return next week for more on what must be done in addressing not only the immediate water requirements of today, but, more importantly, the required water infrastructure of the entire North American continent for generations to come.

I provide immediately below the webcast by LaRouche PAC that tears apart Biden’s so-called infrastructure bill, but importantly provides how one must address the more fundamental question of a “platform for economic development,” which should be the term used rather than that of “infrastructure,” if we are serious about creating a great future for coming generations. The focus on scientific discovery and the spin-offs from frontiers like fusion power and the space program are where to begin.

Thus the title of the webcast: “Defeat Biden’s “Jobs” Boondoggle with a Space Platform.”

What’s missing in the “infrastructure” debate on all sides is one simple fact: we are living in a doomed financial system, dominated by the policies of the central banks, Wall Street and the City of London. Every policy put forward by JoeBama is in service to a corporatist policy aimed at saving the financial parasite, while keeping the host barely alive.

Lyndon LaRouche had a different idea. Kill the parasite, and launch a crash effort to completely uplift the economic “platform” with nation-changing great projects. As a preview to our live discussion Thursday, here is an excerpt from Mr. LaRouche in 2011 outlining a new revolution how to understand infrastructure and economic growth.

Watch Kesha Rogers, Ben Deniston, and Brian Lantz discuss a key feature of LaRouche’s economic recovery program.
