The days of wasting water are through,
When you Californians go poo.
Only one pull on the chain,
Or you’ll be in pain,
Cause Moonbeam is watching you.*

The issue is really about the democrat governed state and the decisions
these hack made and failed to make.
Hey Jerry! How about those millions of gallons of fresh water you routinely pump into San Francisco bay? Think maybe you could divert out to the Central Valley?
City block burns to the ground after smart meter detects excessive water usage and shuts-off flow to the area. Film at 11.
So, it turns out that all those crazy nuts who resisted having a “smart meter” installed in their home were not so crazy after all. They, along with others, knew the day would come when the government would begin to control the flow of essentials such as water, electricity, and gas.
You’re not green enough by California, or whatever communist state, and they’ll simply shut off your utility unless you go before some board and beg for more because of whatever need you have. And that board will determine whether your infirmed grandmother is allowed to heat her home a bit warmer than 65 degrees.
Pffft...
Will this tool be used on your residence, Mr. Governor?
Wonder if this will apply to all the elite Hollywood entertainers also.
Only government could manage to say "It's too hard" and make you cut back on the water you use.
Put those guys in charge of the Sahara and we'd have a sand shortage...

There are many properties in Sacramento that still don't even have a water meter ... of any kind.
The city reports they plan to have meters installed on 80% of the properties in the city by 2025 ... and those property owners are screaming that they don't want their water usage metered (I think they just pay a flat rate ... been that way for a century, I think.)
Not a criminal? Don’t worry. The law will soon accommodate you.
Hey Moombeam! Live up to your name: If it’s Brown, flush it down!
During a historic drought, one would think water use would be heavily monitored, but 98,000 Sacramento-area homes do not have a water meter.
“Up until 2005, the city had an exemption in its charter for residential water metering,” Jessica Hess, with the city’s utilities department, said Wednesday. “It said that residential parcels wouldn’t be metered.”
In the City of Sacramento alone, there are 66,000 without meters.
After 2005, it’s been a mad dash to get everyone metered. The home Towanna Washington lives in is unmetered, for now. She pays her landlord a flat utilities fee. Within the next year, Washington says she’ll start seeing her own water bill.
“Wattier says he believes the smart meter will be used in both businesses and homes to track water waste across Southern California. “
There is a shower head that monitors flow. EPA has funded the distribution of 500 units to hotels hoping to expand the program if it passes the tests. Each unit will transmit data to a central location.

The rich Democrats think there are too many people in California.
“You’re as dumb as a dry Democrat!”
Damn, don’t they live right next to an ocean?
Let me guess, the big dem contributor businesses and government building will never get a smart meter, but the locally owned florist or restaurant will get fined thousands for using a extra 300 gallons one month.
Build a desalinization plant in Huntington Beach with a nuclear power plant right there to make it work. Problem solved! If that’s not enough, build more desalinization plants with nuclear power plants up along the coast.

Can we now refer to the California liberals as "Soap Nazis"?
