Probably Restating the Obvious

But in case nobody has noticed, we are running out of water. So why are we using millions of gallons of it for energy extraction instead of for people? I mean, you would think that policymakers in Washington would be, oh I dunno, maybe calling for massive infrastructure spending to build a string of desalination plants up and down the Pacific coast. Someone could even give a speech about it! But I am guessing we can't do these things anymore unless we create an enterprise zone or a technology hub, and partner up with a lot of the same job creators who make this problem worse. That's just how we roll nowadays.
