Desalination is extremely expensive and isn’t worth it unless your Saudi Arabia.

Or you live in a city of 4 million that is about to run out of water.

Hardly. Georgia is doing pretty good. Especially considering that Atlanta is basically movie and tech HQ now.

Florida is also doing well. People from blue states flee there to retire.

How dare you, sir. Clearly being an evil right-winger makes you predisposed to like colder weather.

Washington is a nice state. Seattle is garbage, though.

Seattle is one of the only cities I like, but eh. That may be because I live near there.

Stay in your state instead of moving and then voting for the same shit that made you leave in the first place.

The only city in this country that I actually kind of like is NYC, and de Blasio is steadily ruining that. All other cities are shit.

It is if you're a northeastern person such as myself.

60 degrees is when you break out the shorts.

Atlanta is a great city as long as you don’t mind the heat, traffic, bad public transit, and the fact that your home will probably be a new apartment complex in 10 years

Might be a better idea to work on water conservation.

Don't you worry, California helps everyone that needs help you can be sure of that.

It'd make the most sense to do desalination in addition to that, if nothing else- to reduce the pain for California residents. They live in a hotter and drier part of the country, they should be able to get engineer their way around the constraints they have if they can afford to make such an investment that'd keep being beneficial.
