It's not just Obama who is locking up our natural resources on land. California is in full swing with locking up our oceans as well. Gov. Schwartznegger has given the green light to radical environmentalists to create marine parks and sanctuaries wherever they wish along the Pacific Coast. They are using the Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA) to turn our coastal waters into aquariums where no one can walk on the beach, surf, fish, sail or kayak. This is going to put thousands of commercial fishermen and tourist towns along the Pacific Coast out of business.This is a completely corrupt process which gives the environmentalists freedom to usurp our rights to access our natural resources however they want. Schwarznegger cut a deal with the environmentalists: they got the Pacific Ocean to do with as they please, and Schwartznegger gets to build the peripheral canal to increase water transfers to Southern California, without any objections or lawsuits from the environmentalists.
