Goliath Season 3 on Amazon Prime and the Water Politics of California

Anyone who knows about Big Ag in CA and the yarn ball of water politics here knows what/who this is hinting at https://ew.com/tv/2019/10/07/billy-bob-thornton-goliath-season-3-finale-spoilers/ WATER POLITICS IN CALIFORNIA.. I thought it would be a documentary..didn’t think it would end up on amazon prime as part of entertainment tv. [..] The siblings are at the center of a case in California’s Central Valley, where a drought brings to light the complexities of water ownership. What’s most depressing about the case, specifically, is the fact that this season was based on real events. Droughts have caused entire towns to sink due to over-pumping groundwater by farmers who need water for their crops and companies, which employ hundreds, if not thousands, of local residents.[..] “There are people who have said before that water will one day become as valuable as gold,” Thornton explains. “This is the story of the big farmer versus the little farmer, and it’s happening right now in our society and around the world. We’re looking at the rich versus the poor — even the middle class. Water is for everybody underneath the ground. There are no boundaries. So it’s legal to get water if you can drill for it and get it out of the ground. The problem is, the local farmer doesn’t have the money to drill for it. So if you have money, you can steal people’s water.”
