Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Gov. Jerry Brown (D-CA) said Californians will face heavy fines for taking long showers.
Brown said, “This executive order is done under emergency power. It has the force of law. Very unusual. It’s requiring action and changes in behavior from the Oregon border all the way to the Mexican border. It affects lawns. It affects people’s — how long they stay in the shower. How businesses use water.”
Brown said to enforce his order, “Each water district that actually delivers waters — water to homes and businesses, they carry it out. We have a state water board that overseas the relationships with the districts. Hundreds of them. If they don’t comply, people can be fined $500 a day. Districts can go to court to get a cease and desist order. The enforcement mechanism is powerful. In a drought of this magnitude, you have to change that behavior and you have to change it substantially.”

foward thinking ...words that should never appear in the same sentence or perhaps even on the same page...in some cases..... with the word democrat..
so many nasty trends start in California
can i say something. and, i actually hope someone tells me i’m being a nutcase, because i really don’t, for the sake of the country, want it to be true.
so i’ve always believed that one major reason the elites have wanted illegal, and for that matter, legal immigration is because a country populated with people with little education and used to low living standards, will not complain about losing the current standard we have.
and california fits that bill. i’m thinking how pissed i would be if i can’t take my long showers, just as an example. we’re in for a long grind until the (still majority), natural born, non freeloading americans have had enough.
Coming soon to the Internet of Things: Comprehensive Fiat.
That’s actually a pretty darn good idea.
As long as there was enough time to rinse off if you are really dirty.

Ya know, if they deported the 10m+ illegals, their water issues would be much less severe (if not eliminated)
(you'll have to wear it on the outside, so they can check).
I heard a report that California is 11 trillion gallons of water short. Does anyone know what that means in comparison to the Great Lakes 6 quadrillion gallons?
Jello Biafra was a prophet! ;)
Convoluted.
Problem was building millions of homes in the middle of a friggin desert.
Then the government stops the water flow to the farms that feed a nation.
