Where art thou, Water?

The bursting of the water mains in the city of Los Angeles are a perfect metaphor for the way government has been running cities, states and the nation. Forgo the work that needs to be done on infra structure because of the undeniable needs of the poor and sick and create department after department of well paid overseers and their staff who need their state holidays, yearly vacations, yearly raises, healthcare benefits and pensions, to make sure the needy get their monthly stipends. So many needy, so many more government departments that tend to the paper work of the needy. Not enough money to make sure pipes don't burst.
Then, on top of an aging water system there are the water issues, such as a God made drought...and a man made situation. The water infrastructure of the entire state has been barely maintained because of the aforementioned types of welfare/bureaucracies. On top of that are the environmentalists who brought a case to the California Supreme court saying the way our state pumps water kills the delta smelt. They won, so we in So Cal are getting less water to save the smelt. Our city leaders have put a water rationing system in place that allows only certain days to water our lawns. This increased and decreased pressure on the aging pipes created bursting events. I never did understand the assigned watering days. Is that because people don't know how to monitor their own amount of water they use and the government has to tell us how to use our water? Kind of like how they want to go after our health habits and our electrical use? Don't get me started on the Department of California Idiots who think our TV's are tooo big.
But back to the water issue. Saving the delta smelt cost farmers in the central valley their lively hoods because they got No,None, Zero water for their farms in the last year. Oh yes, while hundreds of millions of gallons of water went into the ocean instead of being pumped to the farms and to the cities in So Cal. It's sounds too unbelievable for words. Doesn't it?
