ParticipantThat sounds a lot like the Salton Sea. A really cool documentary about it came out a few years ago.
I show it to my students as part of a lesson on environmental policy. Maybe I should be using it and California City to teach them about economics (except I’m not an economics teacher).

Participantpri,
Those scars are from 1958, not 1990. But yeah, I agree, there will always be a bank who will blow tax payers money in the name of profits.Look up Nat Mendelsohn for details on the Cal City 1958 development.

pri, from your link:“It was a landmark case, no pun intended,” Donney said, describing the largest refund ever obtained to that date by the FTC. The settlement also called for a written warning on sales materials given to potential buyers. The caveat, reminiscent of the warning on cigarette packs, reads: “You should consider the value of any of our land to be uncertain. Do not count on an increase in value.”
It is a lasting legacy. The warning is still found on California City tract maps.
