What the point is is not that blaming the "government' is feeble like mentioned in the previous post. What the point is that there needs to be an immediate solution by the "government" BEFORE the Asian Carp enters Lake Michigan through the locks . The locks should be closed permanently , not left open like the "government " decided by their latest ruling by the Obama administration.

What would be worse? Asian carp inhabiting all the Great lakes in years to come disrupting the ecosystem and affecting the billion dollar sport fishing industry? Or affecting the lives of people around the Chicago locks. and local shipping using them. Surely we could resolve the shipping problem easier than dealing with 50 lb fish that launch themselves out of the water and eat 30% of there body weight daily in aquatic vegetation. I mean does anybody in the Obama administration understand the severity of the plague we may have to deal with.

Feeble ? Do they get the big picture or do they care ? I have to guess not otherwise this would have been addressed with a permanant solution. Not just croosing their fingers and "hope " the electric barrier works This flooding is another example of why this already should have been solved. Or did the boys who are supposed to be protecting the common good fail to think about flooding and flat out opening the locks might have to be figured into the equation? They were presented with the problem by Michigan and Wisconsin politicians who are on the ball, and they just decided to use a band aid approach!

Somebody needs to wake up! Before its too late!
