CA Water Rationing: Use No More Than 55 gals/day by 2020

[RocketScott]

Ok, here is a radical idea for Cali.


There are these things called "rivers". They have water in them. The water is fresh, drinkable water that literally falls from the sky, or melts from snow in a mountain.

There are these things called "dams". They are usually made of concrete and steel, and they block the water flowing down the river.

The dam backs up the water, forming these things called "reservoirs". Reservoirs fill up and store the water, that comes from the sky during "rainy season". Then, during "dry season", the water is slowly drawn down and used by functioning humans.


Believe it or not, this radical idea is currently being used, in countries north of the Equator, and also south of the Equator. It is true that even countries of different governing methods, get this, all use the same concept of collecting water and then using it.


So what is the actual problem? There are these group of people that call themselves "Democrats". They have cancelled plans up to 50 years old to create enough reservoirs to be able to support their population's water needs. Even worse, these "Democrats" have cancelled required maintenance for their largest existing dam, and in fact it nearly collapsed last year.

Democrats in California are against the concept of people creating enough water storage to survive. Instead, they pass laws to hurt and harm people and make them needlessly suffer. Unless you make obscene amounts of money or are in the entertainment industry. Then you can do what you want to.

Yes, it is this simple.

Sewage and water processors have been around for home use for deckades. The unit is about the size of a septic tank. 55 gallons of city water per person would be easy you could even have water for your pool and hot tub.

I own a travel trailer and love to "boondock". No water, electricity, or sewer hookups.

I can get by on 43 gallons of water for a full week and still stay clean. Army taught me well. A steel helmet filled with water was your sink/bathtub. Just made use of a wash cloth obviously washing your face first.

The issue with CA is that they've overbuilt their natural water supplies and are getting cut off from the water they've been stealing from the Colorado River.

FWIW, outlawing green lawns and flowering gardens in CA could lead to a mass exodus back to Mexico of landscapers.

Just don't tell your guests where you're getting your water[emoji16]

People with money will probably be able to just pay to assuage their 'water footprint', just like DiCaprio flies all over the world in his private jet to accept awards for his Environmental work, then gets on a private yacht....

Then just cuts a check of an inconsequential amount (to him), and rides off into the sunset an environmental hero....'til the next awards show, or speech to tell me how I should cut back....
