North American Water and Power Alliance would have brought water from the Yukon down through BC and into the northern US all the way to Mexico.

Truth. Was too lazy to type a longer description of the plan.

California knew the Dam was in bad condition and needed repairs but decided to allocate the funds elsewhere like magical trains that won't be built. I won't even get into the social services/sanctuary city debate.

It was all good though because we were in a drout and climate change is real and it was only going to get hotter and hotter until we dried up and it's the shame of our generation.

Negligence almost swallowed up 100k people.

This is pretty fucked up shit. Assuring the water supply should outweigh all of the other above mentioned bullshit. If Oroville collapses somehow a large piece of the state's water supply is FUBAR.

The environmental lobby in CA - most of whom live in the Bay Area - are some of the biggest hypocrites you'll find. They get to live where they do only because there fore fathers damned up half of Yosemite: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O'Shaughnessy_Dam_(California)
But they'll fight tooth and nail any efforts for the state to add more storage capacity; and they like to worry about some stupid, endangered crap minnow type fish in the San Joaquin river.

Bullshit.

Inspection and maintenance of infrastructure (bridges, dams, roads) is not sexy enough to get political attention and funds.
