“We can’t make it rain,...”

A new mantra.

Well, why not, we can legislate everything else.

Jerry tried, but Calif dried.

Raise the price. People will conserve where it suits them.

Believe it has been tried, but the expense is prohibitive.

They do raise the price in drought, then they never make the price cheaper in good times.

Israel has a surplus of fresh water. Turns out, being located next to a large body of salt water has advantages, if you know what you’re doing.

Well,that is where I am and the answer is you get fined for using too much water or watering the lawns during the day
The city will send you a letter telling you an area has a leak going and they will be correct.

They never should have sent any.

Southern Cal was offered a chance to become a partner in the building, turned it down and then sued.

Let them dry up.
