What is wrong with California?

This is a real pisser (or would be if I had enough water to produce surplus urine). Our water district has imposed a mandatory 25% reduction in water use, with penalties for violators. Meanwhile, we live a very short distance from multiple aqueducts that send thousands of acre feet of water from the north to the south, where no such restrictions have been imposed. Our once verdant lawns are depressingly brown. In a state with a widely shared water supply, everyone ought to be under similar restrictions. That said, there's still no better state for me...

Hey you uppity northerner....you have under delivered the farmers 60-80% of the water they have already paid for for the last 3 years.

Remember that when you can't find your baby carrots anymore!

No more giving your "friends" a ride to the airport...

Gotta love it. A new business model comes along to challenge the inefficient, expensive status quo, and California immediately tries to kill it.
