A friend sent this to me this morning, maybe someone with more knowledge can chime in on how this would effect the lake and how the rest of us can help.

That would mean an end to regulating our waters and probably an end to all fish stocking. What would be the point of stocking fish that will eventually be extinct due to invasive species eating the forage our natural fish need. It is not good news if that is the case.

Don't take anything published by the daily kooks as reliable information.

But Tim, I read it on the internet. It has to be true!

Our government at work,,, who are these people?   The current Bill (NDAA Bill) also allows The president to detain imprison, any american indefinitely without due process. 

Obama Signs 2013 NDAA: May Still Arrest, Detain Citizens Without ...

 

Bad news,,, what is the end game? 85  % PERCENT of Americans have no  clue what this Billi is as a whole...  

 

This addition of the bill  is a money kick back to the powers that be..  You think the average american cares about our great lakes when there constitutional rights have been demolished by the bill in the first place?

Excellent point. These measures should have us all in a roar.

The great lakes and SLR are among our nations greatest natural resources and it's mismanaged time and again. 1/5 of the worlds fresh water supply should be treated with reverence it deserves.... But as we all know it wont be until there is a crisis of some sort which forces a reactive solution for more prudent measures and policies to be implemented. Such is the wisdom of modern governance.

Exactly,,, let the problem happen or crisis and take our freedoms..like a false flag attack..
