      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.

    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.

    Why Texas when there are other states that don’t have droughts?

    Also what will happen in the case of a fire?

      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.

      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”.

      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.

          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.
