Should we all be offended and get the pitchforks?
you do realize that just California produces 3.5 billion dollars worth of almonds alone
that's just one of the high water intake items
tens of billions are produced via agricultural irrigation each year - and yes, we could stop technically producing things like almonds and lettuce and just eat lima beans like a bunch of cucks with super green lawns
but we can't even do a rice and bean diet because rice is water intensive as well
so farmers are significantly poorer, we stop exporting some of the last
I live in So Cal. I don’t want to get political here, but there is only ONE organization that decides who and where the water goes in California.
There is an amazing documentary about how the farmers charged the state for storing water on their properties in underground “caves”/wells for future water shortages.
Several years later the farmers sold back the water to the state at whatever price they wanted and the state paid them whatever they wanted , even at 100% mark up. The state then paid for the removal of the water from their properties.
The documentary is about 4-5 years old. My cousin is an elected water department official and I sent him the documentary and he told me about the single organization that runs the state’s water supply. It’s NOT the state.

One of the farmers owns the almonds and the juice company Poms, the Pomegranate Juice sold around the world.
I found the name and it’s a great watch: water & Power a California Heist.

you can look up the ownership of all properties, as its in the public domain, anyone can do it very easily
this is why people who care about that form a shell company to buy the property so it shows up as owned by that company
