Maybe they can ship the water back from mars…
Waste of good farm land.
Not really good farm land if there’s a water shortage. People would be complaining about alfalfa or almonds being grown in it, and they’d be right.
Not every crop has the same water requirements . I’d be complaining about alfalfa or almonds too.
In New Jersey, good farm land is being dug up to make new warehouses along the interstate because it’s cheaper than refurbishing the rotting warehouses next door. It’s fucking gross.
I’m pretty sure his evilness will win over his stupidity.
Let us know how that works out in a few years.
People in Corpus Christi will all die, but Musk will be 2x trillionaire
Fox News blames it on: whatever new word that means “accepting” or “justice” on the Left.
Satire is dead
Just run a good propaganda campaign saying lithium protects from avian flu and they’ll be able to bottle and sell the lithium infused water instead of dumping it.
To be fair, enough lithium would essentially tranquilize a horse…
Run a freaking pipeline from the ocean and dessalinate it. And put the bill on the factory.
Why Texas when there are other states that don’t have droughts?
Also what will happen in the case of a fire?
Toxic smoke from California lithium battery plant fire raises concerns about air qualityy
It all comes down to taxes.
I hate human suffering, but Texas is a shit hole with Abbot and Paxton making the world the worst place they can. If those two breathe bad air, maybe it will end their time on the scene a little bit sooner.
They are able to do this because they know governments will favor their Money over the needs of the local population.
It’s not intentionally evil. Is turn a blind eye evil.
Have you been living under a rock for the last ten years or so? These people are very very intentionally evil.
Why not be. Most people apparently won’t defend themselves from being oppressed if you spin up some fantastical story to confuse them.
It’s not intentionally evil.
Idk, man. I can’t help notice that the city is in a smaller, poor, majority Hispanic region with bad state-level representation and a history of weak environmental protections.
It’s intentionally exploitative and callous of the very obvious outcomes of the policy. I’d consider that “evil” in the same way racing an F-350 through a dog park is “evil”.
Conservatives: So they must deserve it! Suddenly Joe Rogan is talking about the nuances to driving a truck through dogparks.
I’m sure musk has seen tank girl and working on a way to get water from people. You guys just got to be a little more patient, he has his mouth full of the future president’s balls right now
You sure you got the mouth-to-ball relationship correct there?
Here I was thinking the ratio was also a problem with that math. Full…?
Well think of how much power you have over a guy when their balls are in your mouth
Sucking balls is alpha af.
Assert dominance.
Y’all trying to have Musk drain the Great Lakes for profit instead of just laughing at another unforced error from Texas need to learn the wisdom of allowing your enemies to defeat themselves.
I’m so happy he left California. Texas and Musk deserve each other.
The folks that were in Texas before are nothing like the people that moved there because they think people in Texas are like that. Current crop of Texas politicians know this, but play on this inaccurate perception to advertise to out of state people. Working great for them, not so much for real Texans.
I’m sure Shmelon is taking all environmental and saftey considerations into factor /s. Lithium and it’s needed friends don’t have such a great reputation with human life.
Hey, what’s South Africa got to do with it?! . . .
Oh. Sorry, I thought you were maligning South Africa somehow.
Carry on.
Lots of produced water from oil&gas wells can have amounts of lithium in it. Is this a need for freshwater or oil&gas waste water?
Sure seems like the end goal is an even shittier version of Feudalism where the lords feel no responsibility or accountability to their land or serfs.
Why would they? Billionaires have no boarders. Money squirreled away in all denominations. They share no allegiance with you or I.
The border typo makes me laugh because both spellings are right
The Nazis also had their gold. No use when they come for you.
Sure does.
If only there was a location in the US with established manufacturing infrastructure and great bodies of water, like giant lakes. It would take an absolute genius to find such a location, or a sort of smart person.
The whole reason he set up in Texas is simple: Lower Taxes.
There had to some sort of extra crime bonus as well. I don’t know what it is but is it specifically illegal to shoot striking workers in unincorporated areas of Texas?
It’s not illegal to shoot anyone in Texas
Plus his workers will be illegal immigrants and you get a bounty in Texas for every illegal you bag.
They should run a hose from the great lakes to Texas so the factory has plenty of water.
