All of CA’s illegals are using up a lot of water. Deport them and US citizens won’t have to sacrifice AGAIN.
But desalinate water and provide an adequate amount of water to the populace?
Nah. Control can’t be gained by doing that.
“Medfly” Brown
“Gov. Moonbeam”
Next..
“California Gov. Jerry Brown”
Wait, wasn’t he thrown out of office early years ago?
What this means is that Northern California will have to ration water so Southern California doesn’t have to.
“the state grapples with a serious drought.”
Look! An ocean of water over to the east of you!
Illegal aliens in the US consume 1 TRILLION gallons of water every year.
THINK about that liberals when the government turns off your water!
It starts.
Boy, are they in for it.
And Seattle, my home town, gets its water from cascade snow. ‘Cept there isn’t any. At all.
I see brown lawns and dirty cars in their future.
Does this mean that hippies won’t be filling their bongs with water? I doubt it...
The average person uses 100 gallons of water a day:
The following are examples of how people use water found on the USGS government website:
http://water.usgs.gov/edu/qa-home-percapita.html
Bath A full tub is about 36 gallons.
Shower 2-2.5 gallons per minute. Old shower heads use as much as 4 gallons per minute.
Teeth brushing <1 gallon, especially if water is turned off while brushing. Newer bath faucets use about 1 gallon per minute, whereas older models use over 2 gallons.
Hands/face washing 1 gallon
Face/leg shaving 1 gallon
Dishwasher 20 gallons/load, depending of efficiency of dishwasher
Dishwashing by hand: 4 gallons/minute for old faucets.. Newer kitchen faucets use about 1-2 gallons per minutes.
Clothes washer 25 gallons/load for newer washers. Older models use about 40 gallons per load.
Toilet flush 3 gallons for older models. Most all new toilets use 1.2-1.6 gallons per flush.
Glasses of water drunk 8 oz. per glass (did you remember to drink your 8 glasses of water today?)
Outdoor watering 2 gallons per minute
There are 30 MILLION + illegal aliens in the US
so.... 30,000,000 X 100 gallons = 3 billion gallons of fresh water consumed per DAY by illegal aliens (at a minimum)
365 days in a year X 3 billion = 1.095 TRILLION gallons of water a year.
Guv Moonbeam does absolutely NOTHING to help solve this problem for future generations!!! He’s busy building the high speed train to nowhere, screwing the California farmers and appeasing the growing number of illegal aliens. Why not put lots of people to work, building dams and reservoirs. No, he’ll gasp and whine about “global warming...” while California’s population continues to grow and water continues to dwindle. Must say, the people of California get exactly what they deserve!
Watch the rate increase as people cut back on their usage ... must have that money ....
If it weren’t so damn sad that this state has one of the most incompetent governments in the Western Hemisphere, I’d laugh.
I live in the Antelope Valley (high desert) and just yesterday as I was driving through my residential area, one of the homeowners was irrigating their new grass lawn to get it to seed...
I, on the other hand am looking at DG and desert landscaping for the front yard (small and the only place I have grass) and artificial turf for the back yard...
I hate maintaining a lawn, the sprinkler system and lawnmower...the water savings is just a bonus.
Blame it on global warming instead of globalist a $$holes
Desalination IS the answer for California, but not for 2015 or 2016.
It takes a lot of planning and money and time to build a desalination plant. California democrat leadership and lawmakers have been focusing on choo-choos instead.
Did you notice how our POTUS never commented on the genocide of Christians taking place in Iraq and Syria? These Christian communities have been around since the first century church, now they are all gone, never to return.

Imagine all the out of work gardeners. The rich will have water shipped in from out of state.
Hope the Delta Smelt will be all right
