    Google Hoover Dam and look at how low the water is. They say CA is thirsty, but refuses to build desalizanation plants for LA, SF, San Diego, but pursues litigation to take the unused portion of AZ's Colorado River. They already use largest portion of electricity from AZ's Palo Verde Nuclear Power Plant. Poor forest management stopping logging industry, which DID replant and regrow, has led to man caused floods, mudslides and devistation.

    Now, come spring, not all that moisture will be diverted where it is needed, and the W and SW are still going to be in a drought.

    California is an incubus, sucking the life out of the West.

    California use to be a very nice and picturesque place to live I heard. Then came a trillion people and retarded politics.

    Now California simply sucks and the overflow of people are invading other states.

    If AZ has un-used water it won't be for long. We want to be ten times bigger than California. How long does a nuke power plant last? Palo Verde has to be getting kind of long in the tooth.
    If desalination was easy... heck we have a zillion gallons of salt water. For some reason it isn't catching on.

    The Green Weenies will block it. That's because if you solve all the problems people will realize the Left Wing was full of crap and will stop voting for them.
