But Hollywood stars have all the water they need

Maybe California shouldn’t grow almonds since it takes a gallon of water to produce one single nut. Same with the Texas rice farmers who lobby to steal water upstream because they don’t have the environment to grow rice. Thankfully, Texas has just recently put a stop to it but theirs is a wealthy lobby so this ban is only temporary.
