I disagree but that is one of the fundamental cornerstones of My Philosophy. You and most Republicans think of the government as outside of yourselves instead of something that could be a useful tool of society.

If it needs to be done you do it by whatever means necessary and if someone they saying it's too expensive well then frick them anyway. You send all of your local Congress people and elected officials a signed petition saying this is a very important issue to you and then it starts the wheels turning.

So is worrying about where water is going to come from and so is rising ocean water going to be a huge problem for coastal cities. I guess it all boils down to what's more important to you.

tax payers will not have pissed a bunch of money up a rope.



Yet nobody cares that government money pays for the constant R&D of new military weapons just for the sake of getting a constant paycheck. That's the kind of thing you say no to your politicians about until every one of them is forced to listen. Just like solving a problem that is Coastal and water related.

As an aside, do you have the same position when it comes to the wall? Should we just wait for people to design a new wall? Don't be a hypocrite. Answer honestly

Water will be resolved by the market. If it is rewarding it will be solved. Government would be pissing money up a rope.
