Imagine the capacity it would take to replace the flow of these rivers.
We can't even get our current government to build a pipeline to pump oil at $110+ a barrel.
What do you think a barrel of water is worth?
It would be quite an undertaking and I am certainly not qualified to say whether it could be done but I believe it could. We have a huge population of people terribly short of water and we go off to the mid-east and Europe and spend trillions of dollars on savages that couldn't maintain a stable government in a thousand years.

Uphill all the way from MN to the continental divide.
