It's easier to wrap arms around getting more. Drought is out of our control and we like our winter veggies. I travel extensively in Mexico and have seen their odd partnership with the French (technology) and Japanese (capital) and it works in the desal biz. Does the government play a role? You bet it does. So what? They also have better wireless than we do. My 400 year old colonial town has free wifi & internet.
I’m very sorry for the Kirk family and their pain. None of this should have happened. Prior to the assignation, according, to polls, I in 4 people even knew who Kirk was and now he’s a household name while none of those people know what he stood for. He used the Old Testament as a weapon against any idea he didn’t like. His Christian nationalism, racism, misogyny, and hate filled rants and arguments were abhorrent. He was not an elected or appointed official, he was a fundraiser and influencer for the Republican Party. That’s all fine, we have free speech (for some) in this country. But for the federal,state, and local governments to pay for his transport, accompanied by the Vice President on Air Force 2, starting in DC to Utah to Arizona and then the giant funeral with all those officials (who paid for them) must have cost millions. We all paid. I’d like my money back, please. Turning Point and the Republican Party should pay. Thoughts and prayers.
It's notable how much we focus on the supply side of the water equation. Little to no effort at legislation, or funding, to limit water usage.
