Water is not just a commodity or utility. IT KEEPS US ALIVE. Without water, we all die. If someone else uses more water, in this case, a hell lot more and meaninglessly wasting it, and in current CA drought condition, ultimately means less water for rest of us to drink and to keep us alive, then there's an advent problem. I'm sick to hear that people say that's OK because on one broke the law. It was like to be OK to discriminate people on basis of race and religion before the equal rights amendment. CA declared a drought state of emergency since early 2014. Doesn't that mean anything to anyone?
- MichaelGG 11y agoHow about it's OK because it's not that much? Commercial users dramatically outweigh residential, even including folks like this. The whole Cali drought situation is farcial, encouraging citizens to cut back private use while ignoring the real big users. Under what premise is it OK for a commercial user to have more rights to paid water use than residential? I think it also plays into Californians' need to suffer, to pretend they're helping. A nice restaurant in SF I like makes a fuss about serving water, under pretense of a drought. As if that makes one shred of difference other than pretending to do something.
