I'm content to play chicken with the farm conglomerates and their bought-and-paid-for legislators. Go ahead, try and turn off the taps in a residential area because you want to keep growing water-intensive crops.
The result will be one of two things: either the farm industry will back down and adjust, or the corruption of the legislature through lobbying will be exposed in spectacular fashion.
