It’s nearly impossible to find gallons of water in the stores now.

The stocker I talked to said that most of their water orders were being “rerouted” to the border for the “immigrants”.

Rain collection systems used in other parts of the country are going to be sold in more places that once had viable water systems.

It's a drought that's affecting more and more places; not a lack of water but a dearth of conscientious employees and politicians.

Everything politicians touch is doomed to fail. Infrastructure neglect is rampant and will be the end of these places. I'd argue it's already too far gone in most parts of the country and they know it which is why they're so willing to run it into the ground - they know it's not fixable.
