    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!

    Seems like water is a part of interstate commerce. Once again, not a lot of evidence you have a license to malpractice law. Building a dam is actual infrastructure that works. Sort of like the interstate highway system that we stopped building and improving for some reason. Not quite like requiring everyone to own a EV which is on your party's list of sh*t that doesn't work and very few people want. Sort of like your view of why you don't pay your fair share of taxes - because no one makes you. What a putz.

    Can't build reservoirs we'd all die! Delta Smelt need billions of gallons for a non-native species. This is how the left operates. Destroy everything and then claim they can fix it. Like green electricity none of this bullshit works. It's all part of their end game dreams.

    It's not the building part that is so frustrating. It's the tearing things down part. The greens want the existing dams taken down. Just like they want operating nuclear facilities shuttered. All generally paid for facilities which produce reliable base load electricity with no CO2 emissions. Then they tell us that we are luddites.

    That too! I guess they want to live in the dark. They're not too bright.

    Too bad Gray Davis wasn’t still Governor. Sounds like it could be almost time to negotiate a new water deal.

    On second thought we have Kate and Jay who can’t even agree on a fucking bridge across the Columbia.
