BS. Taxes pay for the water rights that are negotiated with other states. Lawyers cost money.


Not to mention the infrastructure & maintenance to bring that water into the cities. Who do you think pays for most of that? The 10 illegals packed into one tiny apartment, or the billionaire and his 5 acre lawn?

Don't try to compare property tax of 10 illegals packed into one apartment with the amount of property tax the rich with big lawns pay, you just look ignorant.

Illegals are not Americans and don't belong in our country, stealing our precious resources.


They're almost as immoral as the traitors that support their presence.

Would it not be more effective to genetically modify Humans to be salt tolerant and drink from that little pond to the west?

Neither NY nor Florida have deserts and I have lived in both. During droughts, both States have imposed water restrictions on residents. I am sure other states have done the same. Nothing to do with "illegals".

We don’t waste water, but I’m not going to start calculating how much we’re using in a given month in case we have to stop showering or washing clothes.

If lawmakers don’t like it, come get me you rat bastards. Enough is enough.

And consider this. California has close to 40 million people. The majority of whom live in semi-arid to arid areas.

Anyway, I suggest everyone take a chill pill and learn what the legislation is about. Even conservative KFI is asking people to cool their jets.

Of course, ZeroHedge had to lie their libertarian rearsides off about the subject, but - well, they are who they are.
