The problem is the whole right to water thing with out having to be accountable for usage. I was driving through New Mexico whom is in the middle of the same drought as Cali and see a fucking fig farm in the middle of NM. In the middle of the day, they are watering the fuck out of the place, I can only imagine how much just that one farm uses.
Ok well maybe it wasn't figs, truth is I have no fucking idea what they were but it was clearly some sort of farm and they were wasting a lot of water on it in the middle of the desert. This was just outside of Roswell, NM.
