#2 As Victor David Hanson has often said, if California had concentrated on building reservoirs, rather than dumping water into the ocean to save the delta smelt, they would not be in this situation.

#3 California really hasn't done much at all for infrastructure since the 1960s. Just look at how jammed the freeways are. But it ins't just the freeways. If you're really brave go to a hospital emergency room. And if you're really really brave wander through the hallways of one of our high schools. Water is but one example.

#4 The El Nino, La Nina pattern of dumping tons of water for 3-7 years and then leaving us in drought for 3-7 years was known when I was a kid. I have to imagine this was intentionally forgotten for 'religious' reasons.

If we had proper government we would have built cisterns to hold extra water so it didn't just run off into the Pacific when things were dry, and reinforced the levees and such against the big rains that we now are gonna come. Instead we have clowns who take advantage of the voters short memory and gullibility.
