Yeah, but other businesses and people aren't dependent on that air. If everyone caught rainwater, then it could lead to a worsened drought and destroy natural habitats.

Has to do with the natural irrigation of land or something. Basically people who collect it on a very mass scale can really screw up the surrounding environment. This applies more to farmers who would collect it on a mass scale then someone collecting in a barrel or two.

I don't think that is right. Rainwater is in ferae naturae. That just means that whoever captures it owns it. If you have the right to be on the property, I think you have the right to capture any rain that falls on it.
Just my opinion.
