Awful idea. Why should the wet parts of the country pump their water into deserts where people shouldn't be living/working in the first place? If people want to live in deserts, let them find their own water. No other region should be obliged to supplement their unsustainable desert lifestyle. Let nature take her course and depopulate those deserts in due time. If you want water, move to where the water is.
- richk449 4y agoWhy don’t we apply that logic to other things? If you want carrots, move to where the carrots are grown. If you want a car, move near a car factory. You want oil? Move to Saudi Arabia. Everyone benefits from specialization and trade. I don’t see any reason it wouldn’t apply to water too.
