Wir schreiben das Jahr 2024 und Dürre ist optional: Zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts leiteten die Vereinigten Staaten fast jeden großen Fluss, der durch den Westen fließt, um und stauten ihn auf, was eine Ära beispielloser Wasserherrschaft einleitete.

In Phoenix, the dumb-dumbs complaining about residential water fail to realize that most water use is by agriculture (which should be priced appropriately) and that we should be desalinating water on the California coast and piping it to AZ. Piping it is not hard (Romans had aqueducts) and now desalinization is straightforward.

It is clear that instead of fighting over scarce sources we should build and transport much more, thus ending pointlessly political fights through abundance. Laws like NEPA and the Jones act that prevent abundance need to be ended.
