The Final Word

As frequently reported by the Stockton Record, RD 348 is essentially a political fiefdom, a form of monpolized power that operates under the radar of most citizens and watchdog groups. Comprised of individuals who meet virtually in secret, and typically facing little or no opposition to their secretive agenda, RD 348 is the very opposite of the sort of governance Californians need and demand. In fact, a San Joaquin County judge expressed astonishment at one reclamation district's lax rules. Again, the Stockton Record was brave (and correct) to point out how some very vigilant people and organization took it upon themselves to initiate reform of this broken system. As we move on to other issues, let us never forget that accountability is essential, that no one is above the law. We will always raise awareness about these matters and their impact on this state. Period.
