Does the government? And, you don't own the air you breath either.



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.

Not sure how true that is. Studies have shown that only about 3% of rainwater reaches streams or the ground.

However, a 2007 study conducted by the Colorado Water Conservation Board and Douglas County determined that only 3 percent of rain actually reached a stream or the ground.
