You reap what you sow and in Californias water issue this is fricking stupid.

Well, by your math that desalinization plant could produce water for 142,000 lbs of almonds per day, or a cool half million bucks in revenue. Sounds like a heck of a deal to me!

In my opinion, no one should be allowed to open their yap about farmers using too much water until agree to never, ever, play golf or wash their car again. Talk about wasting water.

I’ve actually had discussions with some of these water nazis about how many millions of gallons of water it takes to raise fish. Do they think they drink and sweat? JFC, you got me started….

Liberals don't want answers. They want problems.

The environmental wacko liberal's solution to fuel prices, water shortages, food shortages, mining for the minerals we need for renewable energy, managing forests, etc. is to just say no and fight every inch of the way in court, driving up the costs of progress.
The liberal's solution, is in reality, population control. They would like nothing more than a mass die off of humanity.
One of the reasons they are fighting so hard to keep abortion rights.

Kommiefornia can dry up and blow away.


That said, I've wondered why everyone shies away from the idea of desalinization plants. They seem to work well in dry-ass schittholes of the Middle East.

Can't complain about problems and force big government if a private company solves them.

California is no doubt FUBAR.


Wishing it to collapse is dumb. That’s like having a bad neighbor and hoping he loses his job and the house goes to shy it. Won’t be long until the rats and cockroaches expand from his shy ithole over to your place.☹️

Has it solved or at least helped their water issues?
