If California dries up and blows away, where will the people go?

Hopefully, most of them will swim to China.

The Northeast has terrible winters, high taxes, corrupt Dem politicians, and NYS actually is losing population.

But there’s lots of water.

No, no, no. Don’t you worry about those very useful trains! The water drought will be used to control the masses. We have exemptions for the correct persons! And we will charge extra from the people who have jobs. /s lol

All those windmills are probably changing the weather patterns.

I am imagining a mass exodus from California to Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and the Carolinas soon.

You know what they say — the problem with Enviro-Socialism is that you eventually run out of Other People’s Water.

Hopefully, those states will be sane enough to turn them right back around to go back and clean up their mess . . . or swim to China.

Those farmers are some of the “elitist a$$holes” to which I was referring.

A farmers who thinks HIS farm shouldn’t have to live by the laws of nature IS an elitist as far as I am concerned.

At this point, I’m not opposed to letting Alta California become part of Mexico again.

A lot of California patriots gave the last full measure of service to their country and their home state in American wars. They're buried all over that land.

Are you going to explain to them that they died in vain?

p.s. All four of my grandparents and some of my great grandparents are also buried there.

Yeah, and building houses with materials brought in from out of state, let’s stop that too. Heck, God didn’t give us houses so let’s live in caves. And clothes, God didn’t give us those either so that’s out. And no using electricity generated anywhere but your hometown. Of course if you’re living in a cave maybe you won’t need any power.

Dust Bowl in Reverse...........................

LOL, I was just thinking that. Dust Bowl Okies migrated to California, the land of fruits and nuts. Now if California's drought continues, as its likely to do, you water-rich states had better start preparing for an influx of us "Californies." We're not all liberal kooks, by the way.

Instead of spending billions of dollars for a high speed rail that will travel at low speed from nowhere to nowhere we should build a pipeline from Canada to California for water. But what do I know? I am not smart like Jerry Brown and the liberal democrat elites of California.

The world is littered with the bodies of those who fought what was right, and their sacrifice is never in vain. But many of those fought for countries long forgotten and abandoned by their progeny.

What California is now is no longer what you family fought for. For that matter, what our country is now is no longer what you family fought for.

The great divorce will come soon. Whether peaceably, or with rancor, it will come.

“If California ever put desalination plants on line (which will never happen) the water would be pumped in to the San Joaquin river for the Delta Smelt. But don’t worry. Malibu will always have green lawns.”

If you did more research before posting, you would learn the Poseidon desal plant will go online in Carlsbad (San Diego County) later this year, and another is well along for approvals in Huntington Beach (Orange County).

There is an existing desal plant in Morro Bay (San Luis Obispo County), as well. Those span 3 counties along the central southern coast. San Diego County, Orange County, Ventura County and San Luis Obispo County all voted Republican before Obama. That is four out of the six most southern coastal counties of California.

San Diego County, Duncan Hunter, Jr., Darrel Issa
Orange County, Dana Rohrabacher
San Luis Obispo County, Tom McClintock old district location

Is this the same NASA that told us the Poles are melting and used a Mars rock with phony fossils to get additional funding?
