Made my last trip ever through Denver two weeks ago on a Saturday. I’ll never go back. An absolutely miserable horrible place to drive. It is like all the people in Colorado live in a great strip center that runs from Fort Collins to Pueblo and they all live in the dirt in front of the mountains. What the hell will they do for water with all the growth? It reminded me of califorina.
“It is like all the people in Colorado live in a great strip center that runs from Fort Collins to Pueblo and they all live in the dirt in front of the mountains.”
That’s correct: we do almost all live in that great strip you describe, and it actually has a name: it’s called the Colorado Front Range, and the reason that most of us must live in this strip is because all of our water comes from snow-melt in the Rocky Mountains that funnels out of the mountains into a variety of rivers, stream, canals, and tunnels onto the eastern plains and it doesn’t run very far to the east before it peters out and gets all used up. Further east than where the water goes is nearly unpopulated - because there is almost no water.

Bribe for and/or steal the water from the farmers in the Arkansas and San Luis Valleys.... That’s what...
