Yup.  Enormous sense of entitlement, here!

Quote:According to the Washington Post, wealthy residents in Rancho Santa Fe are unhappy with the concept of cutting back on water usage.
People “should not be forced to live on property with brown lawns, golf on brown courses or apologize for wanting their gardens to be beautiful,” says resident Steve Yuhas, the Post reports. “We pay significant property taxes based on where we live. And, no, we’re not all equal when it comes to water.”
The Post describes Yuhas’ town as an “ultra-wealthy enclave” in “a bucolic Southern California hamlet of ranches, gated communities and country clubs that guzzles five times more water per capita than the statewide average.”

The article is worth reading just for the arrogance.

If those fuckers want green lawns, they should truck in water. People need to be able to wash.

In a years time (give or take) it won't matter anyway.

Multiple articles just like this one.



It would be advisable to get the fuck out of the southwestern U.S. 
It's all goin to shit. 

I'm quoting a geologist I very recently overheard say the following (this is as close to exact as I can remember it):

"Just wait and see... While everyone's busy paying attention to Caitlin Jenner and the newest fad on HGTV our society is going to come crashing down all around us.  California is NEVER getting her water back and as soon as they run out, mark my words, that'll be the first domino."

Golfing on brown courses?!  The horrors!!!!!

Someone needs to tell that asshole his property taxes fund the schools, not the water districts. Why are rich folks so fucking stupid?

He thinks the primary use for water is golfing?

Golfing? Pretty gardens?

Somebody needs some fucking perspective to the face -_-

I wonder how he plans on playing golf on his green lawn when he runs out of water to drink.

Just a wild guess, but I don't think, funding schools is high on their agenda.

And I don't think it's stupidity either. The word is rather entitlement.
