Have you ever heard of the war time "scorched earth" policy that certain countries/ regimes have used over the millenia?

They burn everything to the ground buildings and cropping country - then they salt the earth to render it incapable of re-growing plants/crops.

Pumping shyte loads of salty sea water onto the country will have the potential to cause other problems that will cost millions to rectify.

It's not about getting the water for free ... it would still have costs but it would be controlled & adequately allocated by the state ... not some billionaire businessman & his wife.

Private entities should not have control of water supplies.

Selling something that doesn't exist - "paper water" is fraudulent practice.

Would you be more comfortable with a LGBTQ+ colored trans government employee.

It’s such a terrible situation.

The PC WOKE LGBITQ + workplace agenda.

The LAFD Chief is openly gay & this has been a part of her agenda in that organisation. She was under scrutinny about workplace priorities before thses wildfires.

Funny how she didn't do anything about the lack of water supply to the fire hydrants in the Pacific Palisades and the whole area burnt to the ground.

The state doesn't own the water - it's privately owned - the owners control any releases weather it be for their own use(irrigation), supplying the state or upon govt request to allow natural stream to ocean environmental flows.

100% correct - every word.

When a 'government' treats an essential of life as a commodity, from which said government then creates an artificial market and then 'sells' that commodity of life for a 'profit' to its chosen mates for their immense profit - thus leaving those in the most direct need without that commodity or actually paying excessively for it - that 'government' is liable for all the costs of any ensuing disaster.

Governments here had best take note of that...... and get their freaking hands out of the natural water supplies that they sell off for 'profit' that does nothing for those directly affected.

We hear a lot of raving about 'the rights of indigenous peoples' and such - as if that suddenly translates into 'gimme all that land I demand' etc - and yet one of the absolute Rights of any people - to clean water - is being stolen by governments themselves and turned to ruin for a few filthy pieces of silver to provide themselves and their lackeys with fat salaries and perks.  It's the same with other basic rights - such as the right to travel to pharken work without it costing you an arm and a leg on 'private road and rail', and then there is your power to the home and gas etc.....  How many times have we wiser heads told you - over and over - that such things are matters of national security and security of the nation's people first and foremost?

"The right to water entitles everyone to have access to sufficient, safe, acceptable, physically accessible, and affordable water for personal and domestic use."

Does not that mean an adequate amount to defend home and hearth (sic) from raging fire?

People need to wake up - and if Trump is going to dictate that California's water be resumed - full steam head, Donald!  I suppose California governments have a ban on water tanks because they somehow affect all that water wasted into the oceans.... FFS.

Governments in our culture long ago stopped being a service to the people and have become instead a service to themselves and their chosen sets of mates.  WAKE UP!
