Mid west farmers (an ex) would love to see CA go dry. Their milk was higher priced based on their distance from Eau Claire, WI. Their alfalfa is grown on land that gets 6 crops per year of quality feed due to government subsidized irrigation unlike us poor slobs who are lucky to get 3 non subsidized crops before the snow sets in. We need barns and buildings to keep our animals warm in the winter versus a 40 acre field with 8k cows on it with a milk parlor in the middle.

And their claim has always been the higher cost of production out there justifies all of that. Yeah right. I fear for any pond maker from the deserts of AZ or ground irrigator's from the deserts of CA trying to tap the Great Lakes. They are already at low levels and it would probably not set well with us locals.
