Charging people for extracting groundwater from a well that is on their property is just another way of controlling the masses to subsidize the massive urban areas. Yes there may be a drought but when you have nearly 4 million people in LA proper not counting the surrounding suburbs that is feeding on all water sources it is a drain on mother nature. It is not climate change. It is called a dry cycle which happens in nature. When the rains come again they will squall like a mashed cat because the mud slides are taking out neighborhoods and blame climate change. Wake up folks climate is always changing.
Those living in CA should have seen this coming.
The LA area including the LA County/OC etc is closer to 15 million...
They will be charging for air and sunlight next.
