After you read this article you might have some questions, as I did.
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/25/us/25everglades.html?_r=1&th&emc=th&oref=slogin
Will the State of Florida become the producer of sugar?
If not,
What happens to the workers who will lose their jobs?
What will be the result on the price and availability of sugar in the future?
What will State do with the refineries and rail lines?
How will State pay for acquisition and make up the loss of tax revenues?
Why wasn't State and federal Governments looking as Brazil did years ago, to convert Sugar cane into Ethanol which has enabled that Country to become energy independent?
Is this one more example of Environmentalists trumping all other considerations?
..............I am afraid so.
