Yes you would. Stealing “Federal Water” is a felony offense, AFAIK. :)

It has been posted here that California might have unlimited gas if their shale was fracked

Why is 0bama trying to bankrupt California? Because once the agriculture goes, the state goes belly up.
To: Robwin
At this point it doesn’t look like there is any “Federal” water. Didn’t they wash all of it into the ocean?

No need to bother with the shale. The whole state is fracked. And I live there, too.

We want to drive up food prices.
We want to destroy family farms.
We want to get people out of the rural areas and compact them all into dense living cities controlled by liberals so you have to pay welfare for others.

As there are a lot of other kinds of plants, or all various kinds, already there, even in an earthquake prone area, there’s no reason there shouldn’t be desalination plants there too.

Jerry Brown last month declared California's drought emergency, and both state and federal officials have pledged millions of dollars to help with water conservation and food banks for those put out of work by the drought.

Am I the only one who wonders if the gummit is taking this opportunity to put farmers in this conservative area out of business and seize the land? Like the godfather said, never let a crisis go to waste.

It doesn’t take much space, time or effort to plant and tend a garden. It’s rewarding too.

Well, between me and my neighbor we must have grown 150 lbs of potatoes last year.
And I would be happy if we can at least double that this year.
It’s the ground prep that takes most of the work. He, fortunately, has a backhoe.
I have a spade or three!
