Y'all are to busy looking at the trees to see the forest. It is only a matter of time before we follow the precedent set by the rest of the country concerning water rights. The reason would be the vast amount of money the government is about to spend on coastal restoration in Louisiana. If you think I'm wrong remember what happened when Louisiana would not change the drinking age and the federal government threatened to withhold federal highway funds. Also the thinking that the public should pay "BILLIONS" to protect the ecosystem yet have no right to enjoy it is insane. To compare the deer on your property to the ecosystem of the Louisiana coast shows an extreme ignorance of the subject matter. I do not own land or lease land but I do pay 32% of my income to federal income tax. Why should my tax dollars be spent to protect your land from eroding, build weirs and locks to control salinity and fund research to determine future needs?
