“Yes, taxes, very efficient mechanism. So you’re the guy who votes for these kinds of things…”
Jokes on you, I don’t vote!
Regarding desalination, its already a reality in parts of the world, so I merely presented it as an option. Its admittedly a not very good one, as its costly and produces lots of waste (hypersalinated brine).
As for the farming, I’m all for phasing out 100% of farm subsidies over time. Food is too cheap and our citizens are too fat anyway.
To those that oppose environmental regulations, I’ll suggest visiting TJ. Its about as close to a free market economy as you can get around here.
