Let's talk facts and figures about the water starvation that the central California farmer went through last year. Oh did I mention that unemployment is 40% in the valley. Guess lettuce is no longer a green job.
In that little valley 50% of the vegetables, fruits and nuts for the United States are grown. So with unemployment at 40%, the water rationing meant that 400,000 acres were not planted last year. Since there are less crops, wonder how that affected your lettuce price in Albany?
We have big problems and little people running the country.
