it's not about protecting an endangered species, a smelt.
It's about profiteering off of protecting an endangered species.
gaming the system by suing to protect an endangered species, and getting courts to order environmental profiteering lawyers to control the flow of water doesn't really protect anyone.
In fact, it makes Californians
an endangered species.
protecting one species shouldn't be the excuse to allow for control freak governance to burn down the rest of the state!
