Bobby Jindal pushes Billion $Dollar$ Morganza "Leaky Levee" Pork Barrell Project
Despite a letter from 16 leading coastal scientists-engineers condemning the Morganza to Gulf of Mexico Hurricane Protection Plan as a "high economic, structural and environmental risk, that threatens the sustainability of the very ecosystem we are all trying to save" Governor Bobby Jindal is pushing the 11 Billion $dollar$ Morganza "Leaky Levee" Pork Barrell Project. This VOICE of the WETLANDS contends that this Morganza project is a wetland destroyer and a land development scheme scam.
Bobby Jindal wants 11Billion $dollar$ federal contract to build a levee wall around Louisiana under the pretenses of "Hurricane Protection", but in actuality will only destroy wetlands that act as barriers for hurricane tidal surges, and will promote land development in low lying areas extremely susceptible to hurricane tidal surges.
Yes Louisiana politicians are mouthpieces for big business.
That's the reason oil companies were able to construct 10,000 miles of canals and navigational channels thru Louisiana wetlands, and walk away from the economic-ecological disaster they created. And that's the reason you got a $corporate$ mouthpiece like Gov. Jindal in U.S. backed by a "Corporate Media," fraudently pushing the Pork Barrel Morganza Leaky Levee Scam upon the poor uneducated people of Louisiana.
