Although the trick here in LA is we actually have these super rich mega water users, they have a lot of clout, they should be required to use desal to water their lawns but they won't do it, only the best for their mansions. If we made the super rich pay their fair share for taxes we would actually see some relief for northern california from the massive suckage from the south. If you look at the stats the water consumed by ordinary working people in LA is dwarfed by the amount consumed by just a handful of mega consumers who got a free pass from Governor Brown to keep sucking out that water for their massive gardens and trees and lawns.
