Will someone refresh my memory?

Didn’t Husain’s EPA restrict water to crops in CA?

How much of this is a manufactured crisis?

“There are going to be two classes of people. There will be the “exempt.” And there will be those who are going to harassed, intimidated, and punished.”

Pick any country in the past 150 years, and this is the result of Marxism/communism. For a current mindset, look at the Obamas and Hillary Clinton.

While I feel for the farmers in California whose livihood depends on irrigation, but their farming lifespan was always limited to the fact they depend on irrigation.

Even with plentiful water supply the fact that ground water carries minerals(specifically salt) after a time, builds up in the soil and “poisons” it, choking off production.
Rain water doesn’t have this and thus any farm that uses irrigation as a main water source has a limited productivity span.

As for the rest of California, you can just hoist upon your own petard(you voted for these fools)

"Desalinization is both doable and affordable. If a small nation can do it, a large nation can. Even states can. Israel only has about seven million people."

Not to get political but are their desalination plants truly self sustaining. I ask this because we send them a lot of foreign aid, some of which maybe subsidizing their operation.

Again, a technical question, not a political one.

All those photos were taken in Arizona. The first one is at Fountain Hills, the second at one of a multitude of golf courses, and the third at The Lakes community in Tempe, Arizona.
