Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Water rationed on the Colorado River to 3 states and Mexico.

    So, Lake Mead was a 1935 water project when the population of the US was 127 million and the population of California was 6 million. Big water projects built in the West in the last 50 years is like zero while population has sky rocketed. I blame climate change of course.

    Another pro-FDR, pro big government poaster heard from.

    Those who expected an explanation of the disconnect are disappointed, I'm sure.

    I'm sure that you defend the lack of actual infrastructure combined with population growth that I pointed out but my post actually contained some numbers and sh*t. It's not my side trying take out the dams on the Klamath River and the Snake.

    I can count on zero hands the number of water projects proposed by big government

    I need 7 hands to count all the climate change bullshit and zero growth proponents in government

    Getting water from the cascade watershed to the southwest could have been handled before Jesus by the Romans

    Too tough for our best and brightest I guess

    Let's do it with private industry

    Personally, I'm just happy you recognize that without the Federal Government, the West is a pretty arid, uninhabitable place. It's almost like you think the Federal Government should be able to do things the Constitution doesn't mention.

    California's big government has literally been shutting down their water projects from the previous century so there's that at least!
