... but Phoenix does exist. Again I don't agree with doing stupid shit like trying to have a 1950s type of lawn in a desert, and there should be laws against that; but Phoenix is already there and pretty big. We get our water from somewhere already. Usually private bottling companies that probably are either already taking it from your lakes, or someone else's water supply. Phx has like 3 times the amount of people as Milwaukee...

I just don't get the mentality that these are state bound resources and not federal ones... If you pay taxes you should have access to clean water, full stop, no matter where you are. That is definitely not the case now. Also, the debacle in Flint shows that maybe the midwest is not so great at handling this in the first place. Just sayin.
