>>And CA hasn’t built a new dam/reservoir in over 40 years.

This despite having issued bonds and (and presumably starting taxing the populace to pay for them) almost a decade ago to pay for reservoirs. California’s government is completely unable to accomplish the normal tasks of government.

$2.7 billion bond fund to build water reservoirs sits idle in California

Our idea of the normal tasks of limited government.

Deep State has a different goal.

And in CA I’d say it’s accomplishing its goals quite effectively.

Reminds me of the billions upon billions of dollars wasted for High Speed Rail.

“The rail authority estimated in 2008, when voters approved $9 billion for the system, it would cost $33 billion and start running by 2020.

The latest estimate, made earlier this year, set the cost at $105 billion...after a decade of troubled construction $10.3 billion has been spent so far’”

My understanding is that after all this, not a single rail has been laid down for this train from nowhere to nowhere that no one will ride.
