I do. Sure thing.

And also those who buy vacation homes down at the Jersey Shore.

Did you know John Stossel (the big government-waste investigative journalist) has a home at the beach? That it was destroyed in a hurricane? And that he admits that he took the $250,000 from the government (that is, your tax dollars and mine) to have it repaired?

If people want to live in a flood plain or on the beach, I say go ahead. But if you get flooded out, either you get reimbursed by paying the full price of insurance (which should be pretty high in a high-risk area and should NOT be subsidized by others), or you are out of your investment.

Don’t ask me to bail you out.

I’d have some sympathy for those in CA if it were truly just a drought brought about by, you know, lack of water.

But it isn’t.

This is a socialist-caused problem. They let the illegals in. They let the legals in. They did so for their votes. The econazis refused to let any new power plants, reservoirs or aquaducts be built in the last 30 years while the population doubled.

The econazis insisted they shut down the aquaducts to save some critter.

This is not a natural disaster, it is a socialist disaster.

So I say the socialists can go to hell.

The only sympathy I have is for the conservatives in CA who see what’s going on but who have been disenfranchised by the illegal votes that put the socialist scum in power.

I applaud your consistency and thank you
for your tip of the hat to California
conservatives. I would point out that the
vast majority of California farmers are
conservative. They add to the economy and
supply our nation with food.

Bravo Ghost!

Bureaucratic inertia also prevents utilizing the drought as a period to enlarge capacity by excavating sediment, hills, and knobs from the currently drawn down reservoirs. Statewide, I bet you could increase capacity a half million + acre feet.

Might have to slurry that 806 million yds3 of spoils and build an island at sea though...
