Platinum Contributing Member Jimmy Snacks Posted February 13, 2017 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted February 13, 2017 Fuck politics as a failure of that dam would put a serious dent in produce production in this country not to mention possible loss of life.

Liberals always talk of how things 'look'. Gotta admit, it makes Cali look stupid. Plus asking for umpteen billions for infrastructure. Has 'hypocrite' written all over it.

1jkw Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Pretty sure Cali. pays the most in Federal taxes of all 50 states, and ranks near the bottom of dependence, so maybe they just keep some of their money and fix it themselves.

racer254 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 California has been in a drought, right? Why weren't they trying to fix this when the water levels were low, instead of waiting until now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spillway passed inspection.... it was fine but developed a "pothole" that now has grown to destroying a 1/3 of the concrete spillway. The vids of the water launching chunks of concrete is impressive!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the link it says it does I believe. Cali currently gets more then it pays in. Trumps going to have to step in and help fix that spillway once it drys out.... cali can't afford it with its current budget deficit it is running. The sierras are holding twice the normal amount of snow that will run through this spill way when it starts melting. It will be an epic runoff contributing to the damage they have already substained by this wet season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be an epic runoff contributing to the damage they have already substained by this wet season. This chart shows Cali gets back less than a dollar for every dollar it gives. However you want to interpret the numbers, California is one of the most independent states in the whole country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
