Cities should invest in water treatment plant
A recent report from the Ventura County grand jury says that “without major, immediate changes, Ventura’s water shortages will be at a scary level within five years.” The report concluded that cities must address water needs.

A woman wondered if I am a Democrat or a Republican. My response.
My view of government is there needs to be a balance between a strong central government and state's rights.
Pooling our collective resources to establish a military to defend our country is important and has been historically demonstrated. A national currency to allow the smooth flow of money through our economy is important. National public health standards are important, etc.
I believe in the individual's freedom to choose how to spend their hard earned money and not decided by a bureaucrat who thinks he knows best for us. This is controlled by tax incentives for those wealthy individual who can take advantage of them. The rest of us cannot.
I believe in a smaller, more local, more efficient government that is responsive to you and not their political pocket books.
I believe in regulations that are smart, efficient and protective that do not allow one group or unscrupulous individuals from taking advantage of us. I want well thought out regulations and not an employment vehicle for government employees.
I believe in lower taxes to put more dollars in your pocket. Not a bloated, inefficient government that in 1964 was 6% of the economy where today it is 20% of the economy. Bigger is not better in this case. As our population has grown, because of the economy of scale, the size of government should have become less of our economy but instead has grown tremendously controlling more and more of our lives.
I believe in individual rights for self determination and not government directing my life.
I believe government is not meant to be a national charity deciding where to spend our tax dollars saying it is trying to "stimulate" the economy. The only stimulation here is a politician moving money from one end of the economy to the other based on lobbyist and special interest input that influences their decision to benefit them and not us.
I believe, however, that at a nation, it is in our best interest to pool our resources to help those who legitimately cannot help themselves. We are a generous people who take care of our neighbors, but that generosity ought not create pauperism and dependency of our fellow American.
I believe politicians should be serving us and not enriching their bank accounts by using committee's "insider information" to put their investments where their committee policy takes the country.
I believe in you and every American who have a greater collective wisdom than anything we bring together in Congress.
If that makes me a Democrat or Republican, you decide. I consider myself an American who believes in the vision of our founding fathers through the US Constitution and the framework it has successfully provided for many years. A document often imitated by other countries but never duplicated.
We started as a unique experiment in 1776. I think we can say the experiment can be called a success.
What has changed in recent years is politicians who were elected to serve us are serving their financial success at our expense. Politicians have successfully pitted American against American with the media complicit in the misinformation while both the media and politicians go to the bank. And we are paying for it.
In my opinion, policy out of Washington and our state capitals have created a fertile environment for the wealthy to become more wealthy. It needs to stop. Thus my run for political office in 2020.
My best to you.
I can recommend a book that explains the question, "How can a senator or representative can take advantage of legislative insider information to make themselves into a millionaire in a few short years?"
The book includes great examples of well known politicians, on both sides of the isle, guilty of utilizing committee information and other such legal behavior for profit.
"Throw Them All Out" by Peter Schweizer explains why we have the oldest congress in our history. Who would want to leave such a lucrative job?https://www.amazon.com/Throw-Them-All-Out-Politicians/dp/0547573146/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=throw+them+all+out&qid=1557587223&s=gateway&sr=8-1
Joe Biden is the same man who he and his boss, President Obama, told the American people there were shovel ready jobs and spent almost $1 trillion dollars to stimulate the economy.
Wall Street Journal reported that after 3 years of the stimulus, only 1/3 was spent and it was in the city, county and state government sector jobs, not the American population as a whole.
Take away
1. Government does not create jobs, people do by filling a market need.
2. There were no shovel ready jobs.
3. The money spent by tax payers to stimulate the economy and job growth went to sustain 20% of government sector jobs instead of helping the American people.
Another answer on the table which Obama turned down was
1. Suspend medicare and social security payroll taxes for 12 months but this would be paid by the federal government so no one would lose on these earned benefits. This would have
2. Cost about $1 trillion dollars. The same as the Shovel Ready Jobs program.
3. The suspension of medicare and social security payroll taxes allows employees to buy yard furniture, pay bills, build a room addition, take a vacation, buy a car, etc. It put more money into the people's pockets and economy. The employer could buy more product to sell, do more marketing, hire more employees (reducing unemployment), do more research and development, expand the business, etc.
4. Local government would have seen revenue from sales tax and business taxes through increased flow of money in the economy within 30 days.
5. This approach would have stimulated 100% of the working population not just 20% of the government sector union jobs.
Which would you have chosen if you were the President and Joe Biden?

Joe Biden has a history of plagiarism. So much so that he dropped out of his first presidential run over that and his false comments about his grades. Apparently, he didn’t do too well in economics class either as he tries to give himself and Obama high grades for an economic recovery that belongs...Are You a Democrat?
If you think an 18 year old is too irresponsible to own a gun, but a 16 year old is mature enough to vote...you definitely are a democrat.
If you think American citizens should fund the wholesale slaughter of the unborn and we should fund illegal’s coming here to have babies...you definitely are a democrat.
If you think Russians influenced our election and are outraged (even though you don't have a ounce of proof) but you have no problem with illegal’s in this country voting in our elections...you definitely are a democrat.
Along the same line...
If you think requiring an ID to vote is racist (you are literally implying that other races are incapable of getting a government issued ID which is a very racist thing to say) but have no problem with an ID being required for damn near every other activity in life ...you definitely are a democrat.
If you want to stop decent law abiding Americans from having guns, but vote against automatic notification to ICE if an illegal tries to buy a gun...you definitely are a democrat.
If you don't know which restroom to use... you definitely are a democrat.
If you think gender is fluid and determined by how you "feel"... you definitely are a democrat.
If you think capitalism is bad (as you read this on your computer, tablet or phone courtesy of capitalism) and you dream of living in a socialist utopia... you definitely are a democrat.
If you think things are free...and to fund it "you just do it"... you definitely are a democrat.
If you think plastic drinking straws are a problem, but have legalized crapping/pissing on city streets...you definitely are a democrat.
If you think the Constitution is outdated...you definitely are a democrat.
If you don't realize the democrat party has turned to full blown socialism (and it doesn't make a damn bit of difference if you call it communist socialism or democratic socialism..as a turd by any other name would still stink)... you definitely are a democrat.
I could go on and on and on..
