  • The only reason that most of the southwest is short on water is that the water rights in California were decided in the late 1800s allowing farmers in the central valley to use most of the water that we have available to us in the southern part of the state. They have decided to plant water hungry crops, such as alfalfa, in a desert so that they use their allotment every year and don’t lose access to “their” water. Some of the cities have decided to sell “excess” water to Nestlé to be bottled at a rate of cents per 1000 gallons of water.

    The US is literally starving, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, and Mexico of water because of all these bullshit imaginary contracts that haven’t been revisited since the 1800s








  • It makes perfect sense when you realize that the US punishment system is divided into two different systems.

    You’re either in the system for those who happen to be rich, and are supporting the system, in which case you automatically get released with a slap on the wrist.

    Or you’re rich or poor and happened to disagree with the status quo. In that instance you’ll be fed to the punishment meat grinder, having “the fictitious and imaginary book of laws” thrown at you for the harshest punishment that the US punishment system can imagine through “precedent.”
