“The state has already made a political declaration that we are in a “permanent drought”.”
It’s a bizarre game to raise water rates. If you use less water, they raise the rates. If you use the same amount of water you used - they fine you. The idea is of course to use less water.
AND it is way to get people to use the low flow toilets, washing machines, dish washers, low flow shower heads. I don’t bite, I like my 3 gallon per flush toilets, my 40 gallon per wash washing machines - they work and work better than the new gear.
All fine until you wish to sell your house in California, then you would be required to replace all toilets with ultra-low flow toilets per California regulations prior to the sale.
Totally agree. Everything the government does is all about controlling the masses. Unfortunately there are many idiots out there that believe the government.
