New "vision" in Sacramento

So the latest waste of government money -- at a time when DFG wardens still don't receive equal pay with other law enforcemnt officers -- is yet another legistatively mandated Vision Task Force with a Blue Ribbon Citizens Committee and a stakeholder group (applications due July 13) to map out the future of the Department of Fish and Game and the Fish and Game Commission.

It's all the result of legislation from Jared Huffman, the latest water boy for the environmental groups. It's not that I don't agree with everything he's done -- a bill mandating consderaton of forage species is a good thing for someone who likes abundant predator species -- if I didn't know it was just one more way to shut down fishing along our coastline.

What's really hard to bear about our state is it's really just a one-party system controlled by the same people with all the money.

And the resources of our state are in the hands of the San Francisco/LA environmental community, the most incredibly preservationist lot in the world. They have to preserve what's left, because most of them are not in the position to create the future.

Look, I think it's fine for everyone to be with the person they love, but I find it extremely ironic that our current secretary of Natural Resources, appointed by Jerry Brown, is a man married to another man. Totally legal, but also a union incapable of natural reproduction.

Let's move away from homophobia -- does a childless person have a right to decide the future of our state's resources?

Of course they do. Let's get back to the question at hand -- this new vision quest. Look at the 'Blue Ribbon' group online. All career politicians -- the worst thing about the DFG and the commission is they combine to create a massive political bureaucratic political beast. How can politicians solve that or come up with a vision?I haven't been presented with a vision of the future by a California politician since I saw a movie with Ronald Reagan being upstaged by a chimp.
