Thanks to the confused governor, in 2015 water meant for people and farming went to fish and to flow out to the ocean.  We expected a loss of jobs and revenues.  Now we know the extent of the revenue loss due to the confusion of Brown—her thought he represented fish not people. “The production value […]
